I see the compartment in the deck next to the helm as a fish box. *I have two problems. *The first is that it is now occupied by the oil reservoir for the outboard. *I'd like to relocate this under the helm seat. *This shouldn't be a big deal. *
My second problem is the drainage from the fish box. *I put a hose in there and it seems to drain directly into the bilge. *Is, or should there be, *plumbing underneath there somewhere? *I don't like the idea of fermenting fish juices stinking up my baby. I'd rather hook up a pump and send 'em back to the sea. TH

No plumbing, just nice smelly blood to the bilge, use some water and have the bilge pump it out, then rinse when you get home!.
Thats what I do , I have two fish boxes!

Tuna, Ihave the same dive gear storge locker as you do. ;D.
My box seat had a drain hose that dumped to the outside of the hull on the port side. I relocated it, so it would drain into the the box. Yes, you have a piece of pvc that is used as a drain and it runs under your fuel tank and straight back to the bilge area. I asked the same question last year. My storage box was completely filled with water and wasnt draining.

Thanks MJ. That is not the news I was hoping to hear. If there is no plumbing connected to it I'll probably install a small pump and run tubing to a rear scupper that is not being used.

Hammer you posted while I was typing. I'll look for the tube. I have Friday off (Ceasar Chavez Day) and I get to spend the whole day working on the boat. I'm freakin' giddy about it.
