That's exactly what they want the boat owners to do...
No actually, they may be trying to make hull look good all times... Like no water marks on the hull from a above waterline outlet...
They might figured that if the bilge
pump doesn't allow siphoning water back in they should be ok...
As I said, if the bilge
pump has a oneway outlet and a high loop, then a seacock on the throughhull, it should be fine... You said access was covered, that doesn't make any sense...
I've seen lots of through hulls, those might be bilge
pump oulets, below water
line...
