[QUOTE="Go Fish, post: 278853, member: 6062"] My Crestliner has a plug on the running surface about 6" port of the keel and 6" forward of the transom. The plug screws into the aluminum of the running surface from the inside of the boat. There is a hood on the bottom of the boat, over the plug hole, that has an open end facing aft. It sticks out 3/4 of an inch from the running surface at the open end and tapers to a smooth transition to the running surface about 2" forward of the open end. At speed, I can drain the bilge by removing the plug. The hood as no effect on the tracking of the boat. Weld your part in...and then ask the naysayers if the transom mount sounder transducer they have sticking about half an inch below the running surface of their boats has any bearing on the direction their boats are pointed...
