Your gas vent should be the highest fitting on the transome aprox. 1" in diameter with what looks like a stainless steel baffle in it. The bilge discharge is right under that same size but no baffle. Bait well intake is on the bottom of the boat about 12" forward of the transom slightly right of center, will be right next to one of the trailer bunks. The baitwell, fishboxes, and floor drains all have large fittings low on the transom, and of course the bilge plug is lowest in the center. The best thing I did to put my mind at ease about my boat was to get in the boat while on the trailer, with bow as high as possible, and put a running garden hose in the port fishbox, starboard fishbox, port floor drain, starboard floor drain, live well, bilge to find the pump discharge, then pull the bilge plug to drain the remaining water from it. Having someone on the ground behind the boat while this is being done will be a big help, better yet let them be in the boat with the hose and you can see where its coming out.
By the way the floor drains are plumbed to opposite side through hull fittings to prevent sharp turns in the flexible hoses.
