Some more shots...check out the live well 'pump'!
NICE find - it is indeed a time capsule! It appears to have the Moesly-type scuppers draining out the transom instead of the Potter-designed drains out the bottom.
Would be interested to know if the drains are crossed under the deck, i.e., does stbd scupper drain out port side, etc.?
That baitwell "water pump" and overflow design is another clever Moesly idea - couldn't be simpler and works pretty well, given the limitations of a retangular well. Later versions had the cup on the inside, with a bunch of 1/8" drain holes in a circular pattern the outer fiberglass skin, with a 3/8" hole in center for water supply line. It's adequate for what little live bait fishing I do and I kept the basic design when I added the bracket, even though the flotation tank covered up that section of the transom. If you make up another 3/8" dia. length of copper tube with a 45 degree cut on end and attach a length of 3/8" ID hose to it, you'll have a simple washdown hose you can use while running on plane!
It can be a transom killer however! Suggest you pull off that flange and make sure it's sealed really well. I pulled mine apart from inside years ago and found it had started to leak, but caught it before it had gone very far. Dried it out and sealed with epoxy and a threaded PVC union glued to transom skin and sealed with a PVC plug.
