Being a 74' hull I was told the floor is water level so unless I raised the floor I couldn't make it self bailing. So I installed the sump well and was gonna make it a hybrid type transom with a sump and a well type box built up. What I can do now is cover up the sump well with a piece of ply and glass it flush then cut out a circle for a 8 inch inspection plate and make kind of a dry storage in the rear. Then drill my holes for my ball scuppers and make it self bailing. The stern of this boat is lite weight and I don't think I will have a problem.
