Fish box thru hull ?

[Mikem8560]

when I bought my boat the past owner told me it had sunk at the dock and suspected this throughull was the reason. so I changed it looked ok to me but when I had it out it didn't seem there was any block of wood between the hull and the well they were tight against each other

The depth or lenght of the brass tube thru hull on my 18 SF is 2 1/4" so I doubt the hull and the liner are thick enough to be tight against each other.
