    96 272 sailfish scuppers

    I changed the hoses and the through hull fittings on my 282 and cut the hole aft of the transom door. I wanted the deck plate to be in a less used area. This worked well for me.

    You're welcome. I can get a pair of 225 3.3 litre with 1000 hours or a pair of 4.2 litre 250's with 300 hours. The supply chain is giving me few options... Which way would you guys go?
