I just pumped out about 10 or 15 gals of water from the hole in the floor of the foward cudy?
Doesn't that water drain to the aft of the boat? Do I have a blockadge some where? What can I do to fix this? As always Great thanks to this board...

There should be. You may need to snake it out.

1984 model had a piece of pvc pipe that went from the forwardmost compartment under the fuel tank and into the bilge.

I think the forward cuddy drains to the bilge (bottom of the boat) and then runs down into fiberglassed pipe that carries water under the fuel tank. That is probably where the blockage is. not sure how 85 i/o is configured but if it is like mine I would try to snake from the aft end of the fuel tank and snake up.

Does yours have an infloor livewell and do you use it? If not you may cut a hole in the bottom of it and check the forward end of the pipe that runs under the fuel tank. I had to do that to mine to get it to drain. It was stopped up with leaves. Do you have a deck plate just aft of the cuddy door, check in there if you do.
