Water in the central cavity is an issue for Outrage and Revenge models with under floor tanks.

Many have questioned a solution. The prevailing advice is to install a hose with screen at the end into the stern end of the cavity and attach to a prime-less pump (Jeff did this) or leave the other end open to connect to a hand pump. Jeff had photos of his hose install in his restoration article.

I do not recommend drilling any additional holes, especially a through-hull. Just adds one more entry point for water. Thru hull scuppers are problematic in their own right.

When installing the new tank, do not re-foam, use spacer blocks out of starboard/seaboard and orient them to allow water to travel fore/aft and down.
