I have had my fair share of leaning over the transom and pulling the plug from the outside to drain water. It's not easy when on plane!

i have an 1100gph bilge pump,backed up by a 750 gph pump. i put plugs in both sides of the drain, because my boat doesnt have a threaded plug and i want to be damn sure they stay put

Here are some pictures from today. The chase tube fabrication went very smooth. I didnt exactly like drilling a hole through a newly replaced stringer but i'll get over it. The hole drilled through the sringer was drilled slightly larger to allow thickened resin to bed the tube and seal the raw wood. I also took some more pictures with the console in to show my setup.
