There is no hose that connects to the drain on the deck. It is a terrible lack of finalizing a nice product. I added drain hose and ran it to the back and have it draining right by the rear drain. I also ran pvc pipe through the hole in the ski locker and wouldn't you know that the hole was blocked by floatation foam. Once I forced the pvc through and connected it to the drain by the ski locker door on the deck, my bilge is 100% dry after using it and cleaning the deck. I will post photos but I am out of town for the next two weeks.
