E28 cockpit drains outlet relocate

I hate the fact I'll have to leave a 1 1/2" below the water seacock open while away from the boat to service the cockpit drains. It looks like I could relocate the outlet to the transom at the same level as the exaust and have adequate slope for drainage. If the height of the exaust is OK for a following sea then the height of the drain should be too? Has anyone else tried this? There is great access to do this. What do you think?

Oh yeah, I'm back after a couple of months absence...another post when I have time...:esad:

I did exactly what you are suggesting about a year ago. And, for the exact same reason. Both cockpit lines come out beside the exhaust opening and it works just fine.

Has anyone tried this on an E35-2? Barely got through the winter with closed drains resulting in 6 inches of frozen water in the cockpit.
