I thought the "Fish" was the center console and the "Steplift" had the 3 piece windshield. Anyway on my 83' a few gallons of water might come through the scupper if heavily loaded and getting on plane, it was more of a fun thing watching the new guys panic. I like the idea of keeping scuppers as open as possible, nice when a wave comes over the windshield. We always said there's no more efficient bilge pump than a scared man with a 5 gallon bucket.

Right on the money with that statement, except for one thing, I was the new guy the first time out. Talk about being nervous.

Saltwater washdown. There is a valve that diverts water from pickup that supplies both washdown and baitwell. Just need to set valve to what I want to do. Works really well.
