Our boat, hull 162, has two deck fills for water on the starboard side. The aft one goes down through the hanging locker to the starboard water tank. The forward one is capped off 4 inches below the deck. There seems to be no fill hose for the port tank.

Was there originally a fill hose that went under the cabin sole to fill the port tank? Does anyone know how it was routed? Seems like that would be more convenient than filling the port tank through the inspection port.

Yep, there was originally one to the port tank routed all kinds of stupid places under the sole and through the L shaped settee where water would collect since it had to flow upwards at the end. Nasty black stuff would always be there so better to fill from inside at the inspection port. I finally got around to removing the hose like has been done to yours. It was a pain and all kinds of nasty stuff came out of it. Best to leave yours as is or use that hole for something else.
