    Plumbing suggestions

    I'm in the middle of plumbing my Sabre restore right now. One of my whole goals in doing this boat was to keep everything as simple as possible. I'm going to have two bilge pumps (1 auto and 1 manual), Livewell recirc and Livewell in. I'm also not going to have the livewell flapper valve, just going to use a drain plug (I already cut the hole bigger to accept a larger regular drain plug size thru hull and installed it). I'm kicking around just having the livewell overflow and livewell drain just empty into the bilge. Any real negatives to doing it this way?

    No real negatives that I can see,as long as you have a working bilge pump,you will need to pump out the bilge as the well overflows. Your bilge will probably smell worse than it already does.
