my 75 was the same, i loved the no scuppers!! but like stated you need to have 2 pumps, put them on to a glued in 2x4 so they are off the floor a bit, this will keep them from sucking sand and other stuff that gets down there and jams the pump!

PVC board works good to anchor bilge pumps down, you can 5200 to a clean bilge and screw your pumps into it.. I like mounting the auto switch a little higher than the pump, that way it doesn't keep coming on and going off with teh water siphoning back after its off. I set my emergency auto switch just above hte main one, its wored to an alarm, if it goes off, I know I'm in trouble. Right now my V has two 2500 gph pumps in the rear bilge, each with its own 1 1/8 smooth wall hose to an over board drain. I haven't finished the forward bilge pump, but it will be the same with its own overboard as well. My boat supposedly will ride high enough for the scuppers to keep the floor dry, but i don't like the hose routing and will be changing it

I bought the biggest thru-hulls I could find for back there. I agree with the others, the originals SUCKED!!!!
