Moving the bilge pump outlet

[def328]

Getting ready to install a B pipe on my SJ and the outlet hose and fitting for the bilge pump is going to have to be moved, its right in the way for the new chamber. Whats the best way to fill the hole in the hull?

Epoxy works pretty well

I have seen guys leave the fitting, cut the hose to about an inch or so, and clamp a bolt in there. You could also look for a round headed cap bolt and bolt that in the hole with silicone to seal it.

I just realized you said the bilge and not the bypass. Hmmmmmm. I don't think my fixes will work for the bilge outlet. Too large. You might be able to leave the fitting in and fill it with silicone.
