Where is it coming from? Does it run fore and aft or does it run abeam?  I've seen tubes that run though the stringers allowing water to drain from outboard to the center of the hull.

Its on the port side ,,,as far as I can tell bow to stern. (but I don't know how far up the boat it goes ...
There is a fish box ,with a drain, but it looks like at some point someone ran a new discharge to starbord ,,,
Would it have originally been drained to bilge ??

Thank you...  I did see what I was trying to explain in one of his pics.  Not sure where it's coming from looks like it goes into the foam on th  other side of the caped stringers to somewhere...
But great link.  Thanks capt.

Truckie - do you have a CCP?   :scratch:   They have a pipe through the stringers on each side...
