Sounds like a good trip overall, but a few ''bugs'' showin' up...I like Seacrets idea of runnin' from a fresh tank to see if fuel probs...other probs don't usually clear themselves up like that...

water in the cuddy well and bait well...w/ plugs out it SHOULD drain to bilge as you say...if it were mine, I'd find a long rod of some kind and feed it thru the transom drain hole...ease it along the bottom of the hull as far as it'll go, it should go all the way to cuddy...maybe you'll clear an obstruction, but as much water as you're describin', you need to get rid of the prob...have a hose ready to flush it out if you do clear anything... ;) ...good luck w/ it...let us know :D ...
