besides the GF likes the boat and doesn t want me to sell it.  
 
there the best reason in the world to do anything.  i imagine the I/O would ride very well with the engine and fuel tank so low.   
 
 not sure about running drains out the side, i think the deck is below the waterline.  i would worry more about the bellows than the deck drains.  make sure their in good shape 
 
no leaks, no drips, no errors
