Is everyone drilling holes in the “sidewall” of of the ski locker and corresponding hole through the floor I under the observers seat? It looks like it should be straight forward, but wanted to check with folks. Not sure if there any “don’t drill” areas around there. I’ll make sure to avoid the conduit and copper headed back to the engine. it looks like I’d be pretty safe drilling through the floor there as there is already a pretty large hole there for the intake vent. second, I’m thinking about putting a board up toward the back of the area behind the observers seat to mount the 4 reversible pumps. They are each 7-8 lbs and I’d prefer to put that weight up front for several reasons. Any big objections to that other than needing to buy and route additional fill/drain lines to the front of the boat? (I know I need to replace the vent hose). Also I would probably run the HDPE board to the floor so the fiberglass on the back side of the seat isn’t supporting 30Lbs+. Thanks!

As it is snowing in Colorado we are getting pumped for the short boating season ahead. In anticipation of trips to lake Powell and our local reservoir, we are dreading the Decon procedure needed whenever we return home. Looking for some tips to see if anyone has plumbed in a “quick connect” solution that would alleviate the need for the fake a lake connections at ballast intakes, and would keep the rangers off my boat. Would be nice to be able to hand them a hose coming from the boat that they could connect to and not spend an hour and half climbing under the boat. 2015 wakesetter 23 LSV #decontamination, 2015 23 LSV, ballast plumbing, LS3
