To close the loop on this thread I started, my mechanic was able to confirm that the hose that's been cut (as seen in my photos) was intended (by Formula's original design) to drain the cabin bilge out of the transom under the swim platform where there are other drain holes. However, the part of this hose that can't be seen (it follows the same path as the sump drain hose) that is behind the sump compartment wall is somehow blocked and will not drain. We confirmed this by reconnecting the cabin bilge to this connection and filling the bilge and turning on the bilge pump. It would not drain through the hose, proving that there is something blocking the hose behind the sump compartment. We were able to locate both of these hoses coming down the starboard side along with the toilet hose and could see that there is a lot of foam sprayed in the area where these hoses come out of the cabin on the starboard side. So the sump hose and this cabin bilge hose are both coming out of this foam, but only the sump hose will drain. That means that the bilge hose was likely crimped during the foam installation process, and thus likely never worked when the boat was new. Realizing that the cabin bilge would not drain, someone decided to route the bilge into the sump box. Of course, the danger with this is that the sump pump is half the power of the bilge pump, so if there was ever a situation where water was flooding the bilge at a rate faster than the sump could pump it out, then the boat could sink. For example, if I left the cabin door open during a very hard rain that put enough water into the cabin that overwhelmed the capacity of the sump to pump it out. My mechanic suggested fixing this by running a hose from the cabin bilge out to the starboard side and install a thru-hull, as it would be much more difficult (if not impossible) to run a new hose along the same path as the original crimped hose, because it runs in between the cabin wall and the fuel tank, and there's no access to this space from inside the cabin on the back wall. For now I decided to keep using the jacked-up method of draining the bilge into the sump. Hope my explanation makes sense.
