Overboard drain. That, I believe, is a fishbox. That's my story and I'm sticking to it! I'm in the process of replacing/filling mine. Trying to find a fitting which is gonna have to be for a 2-1/4" thickness. Read some posts about there not being any reinforcement between the fishbox and the hull, but, mine does, plywood. If I can't find a fitting, I'm filling it.
