I just got my 77 redone with a filled in transom, bracket, etc... I bought a leaning post with 30 gallon well from Birdsall Marine and it's working out nicely, no bending over all day. Also have 3 levels of drains so I don't have to run with all the water in there all the time. It's plumbed to go out the back underneath the bracket. With the running pickup it's great I don't have to run my pump all the time, and it the drains keep up as long as I don't open the valve all the way. I also have a circulator pump that works good too. The only thing I may do is get the well sealed at the lid, as when the top level drain is on it seems to leak at the top a bit. However the water just goes straight off the back and not around the seating at all, so not too big of a deal.
Check out my pics on the photos page, 77 seacraft restored.
