I'm hoping someone can tell me how the original bilge pump setup. All I see so far is what looks like a wash-down pump with two short sections of hose. I see no thru Hull fitting for the bilge water exit. Just how did they set these up back in the 70s I can find very little info on this boat

Unable to say with certainty, but some pumped water in and let it drain out. Some just let water come in and out without a pump, just a hole in the bottom

If there's one in it now, just follow the hose. If it doesn't have one, and want to put one in, then you drill the hole where you want it.
