Happy Lappy Posted June 17, 2020 Report Share Posted June 17, 2020 Anybody have any pictures of the inside of their bilge area? Specifically looking for the area where the drain tube comes in. I need to replace mine and after looking at a little closerat it, it just doesn't look right. Maybe someone got creative with a DIY project.

Toeknee217 Posted June 17, 2020 Report Share Posted June 17, 2020 I can get you a photo right now but I'm having trouble identifying from this photo. Is this the drain tube of the Livewell above the bilge plug? or is this the actual bilge plug fitting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Lappy Posted June 17, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2020 Sorry, it needs to be rotated. That's at the bottom of the bilge. Backside of the drain tube that the plug goes in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toeknee217 Posted June 17, 2020 Report Share Posted June 17, 2020 They may have changed fittings from 1990 to 1992 and its also possible that mine is not original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Lappy Posted June 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2020 Is the vertical wall that the tube is in completely flat or is it concaved? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toeknee217 Posted June 18, 2020 Report Share Posted June 18, 2020 Maybe it’s easier to see in this photo. Yes It is flat. It does look as if yours was ground down around the fitting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Lappy Posted June 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2020 That's what I'm thinking just not sure why? Not sure what my next step should be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toeknee217 Posted June 20, 2020 Report Share Posted June 20, 2020 Im no pro but it seems like it would be pretty difficult to build up that much glass around the fitting to flatten it out. Unless it was not sealed correctly or you find some delamination id probably just leave it be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
