Ballast Q on 2003 22i

I have an intergrated sac under the front seats. I want 2 pumps to empty. My questions is where would be the easiest place to put the thru hull for emptying??

I was thinking somewhere on the side of the hull under where the rub rail is, and under where the front mount is for the tower?? Would this be the best spot?

If so how difficult is it to take the seat off to gain access??

Easier is better IMO.

If it were me, I would use a thru-hull on each side, and locate it in the storage area. This makes it easier to gain access for tightening the nut and attaching the hose. And yes, under the RR.

I had considered that. I have my amps, batteries, and on board charger in the storage area and I thought to eliminate any water-electrical issue before it happens.

On the driver side I have the sub under the consol.

How hard would it be to drill 1 1/4"holes and bring the hoses through the area where the sub enclosure is? It certainly is easy access there to put the thru hull connectors and no electric stuff.


Would this work??
