I haven't worked on the boat as much as I could have, but I was able to get all the pour in foam done. I made a front live well out of a new PVC tub sink from Home Depot. I put 1 1/2" drain on the bottom and a 1 1/2" drain on the side, that tee's into each other and all the way out the bottom of the transom. Then put it in place and poured expanding foam under and around it, then completely sealed the front live well to be cut out later after the top is laminated. I used a through hull fitting with scupper for the drain with a tee fitting and shut off for live well above deck in the back. Added a new brass 1" drain fitting by drilling the 1" hole then cutting the brass thru hull to size used sealer on fitting and flared with a flaring tool. Also plumbed and wired in a bait well pump on top of the high speed water pickup at the back with a valve so that it can be used for either front or back live-well. I also used a tee fitting off of the same high speed pickup to feed to my wash-down pump. Added a new bilge pump and float switch also.
If we have some warmer dry weather I should be able to set the top fiberglass back together soon!
