>> Bill,
>> The bilge pump in the cabin is hooked into the sink drain (in my boat
>> anyway) after running under the cabin floor and up in the sink area. The
>> drain hose is tee-d into the sink drain.  The bilge hose has to loop up
>> higher than this connection (to right up under the counter top) to keep
>> water from running back in through the thru hull when heeled over to port.
>> I'll try to take a picture this weekend. - rob
