Marine Thru-hull Fitting Drainage Device

A marine thru hull fitting drainage device comprising:

• a U-shaped channel body having a substantially U-shaped cross-sectional area along a length of the body such that the body forms a channel for directing fluid within the body, the body extending from a first end proximate to a boat hull to a second end that is distal from the boat hull, the channel body further including
• a groove formed at a center of the channel body extending from a first end proximate to the flange to a second end located on the second end of the thru-hull fitting, the groove having a tapered width such that a width of the groove expands from a narrower width at the first end to a wider width at the second end of the groove;
• a lip formed on a lower surface of the channel body aligned with the groove and extending downward from the channel body at the second end of the channel body;
• and
• a semi-circular flange attached to the first end of the body proximate to the hull, the semi-circular flange having a flat surface area.

• a thru hull portion comprising a thru hull flange, a threaded body attached to the thru hull flange, and a nut threadably engaged with the threaded body;
• wherein the drainage device is attached to the thru hull flange, and wherein the drainage device is resiliently flexible.
