If your hull is set up like the skiffs I've seen, then your deck is the bilge. Between the floor and the bottom of the hull is filled entirely with foam, hence the unsinkable term that many use. There is enough foam inthat area that the deck couldn't ever hold enough water to completely sink the boat untill water would begin to run out of it. In most boats like that you normally either leave your deck plug out so it is self bailing, or they have a little retention area by the plug where water can collect and be pumped out.
