Hmmmm.

I loaded up the port side bow cooler on my 1988 17' Sportsman Bluefin. Noticed that there was a drain in the bottom, but for the life of me I can't tell where it drains to. Does this just drain into the hull and is subsequently drained out the stern plug?

Yuck if so.

That's the way my boat is set up.

Ayuh,... You could plumb a dedicated thru-hull from it,.... I'd put it at, or above the waterline though....

Mine also goes to the bilge, then out. Not sure why you say Yuck. It's just melting ice - the beer stays IN the cans.

Yeah... that was the problem. I put some crappies covered in ice in there :)
