...I saw one post that indicated their boat has a 3" inspection port cut just in front of the engine with a screw plate to gain access. I'm thinking I could cut a hole there, install a screw plate and then put a temporary bilge pump hose to pump it dry.

I'm looking for something like - "don't do it, it's a waste of time.... or - yeah, I did that and it worked great!"

Ok - I cut a 2 " diam hole in the glass just in front of the Yanmar. Unfortunately it's dry there so that's not where the water is coming from. I put in an old fuel filler deck connection to plug up the hole. If anyone is interested, I can send the picture.
