I was thinking about a loop, but how the heck to I install one? It's a
fairly shallow bilge, and I would have to vent it somewhere... another
hole
in the boat?


That's a question I'd love answered, as well. The only idea I could come
up with was a vented loop under the head sink, snaked to the stern along
the side, but that's a 10' extension to the run.

Yeah, that would be way too far for me. One possibility would be in the
engine space. It's only a couple of feet from the primary bilge area.
