I put 1 'ducer in w speed temp built in and plugged all 3 of the others this way.

This also leaves you a place to hook up a raw water washdown in the future.

Smoke, the location of this hole is in a bad spot. Hard to access, and it is almost against a stringer. Not to mention I dont want any more holes in the bottom than I need. I was hoping to mount a high speed pickup on the bottom towards the stern. The way i plan to build the transom area i will have tons of access there for a livewell and saltwater washdown connections.
