Best place for bilge pump on '82 Mac 25?

Post by Mac25 »

My '82 Mac 25 collected quite a bit of water in the hull during this winter storage. I will correct the chainplate leaks and other problems before next winter storage. Still, I'd like to install a bilge pump. Seems the best access to the lowest part of the hull is located under the seat in front of the table below deck. This is where I'd like to mount the pump. However, it seems there is no opening from there to the rear of the vessel for the water discharge tube (to connect to the cockpit drainage discharge tube).

Where is the best easiest place to mount a bilge pump and route the drainage line on a Mac 25?

Thanks,
Mac25
