There is a plastic plug you remove and then you can run the wires through from the rigging tunnel and into the console. Many Outrage 22's have a pump there. Edited by Joe Kriz on 08/01/12 - 1:39 PM

My Outrage 22' Cuddy was slightly different but did run into the rigging tunnel and then out the starboard side where the access panels are. You can see the discharge fitting here is this photo which is factory for the Cuddy. http://users.sisqtel.net/jkriz/Outrag...rboard.jpg Edited by Joe Kriz on 08/01/12 - 5:20 PM

I guess I could get an adapter and go to lower size tubing ? I was gonna at this time run it to the rigging tunnel and leave it at that . I am not thrilled about putting a hole in the side .. It does look neat though ?? Thanks again , Bob Bob 1979 V-22 Outrage, 225 HP Yamaha
