Got me a 71 SF20 now what do I do?

So if you have ball checks there that would imply that the deck scuppers run through the rear, hence deck work of some sort has been done..? Although also see what looks to be small original self bailing deck scupper wells, albeit covered in leaves in one of the pictures you posted. Anybody have an idea whats going on there? Did they just close up the original scupper port on bottom and rout it to a hose through the transom? (maybe the cap was off but whatever was done was just phoned in).
