My 1982 O'Day 25 has an anchor locker which drains through the V of the bow, above the U-bolt. The through hull fitting is missing. The hole size is 5/8 of an inch. The thickness is 1 and 3/4 of an inch. Does anyone know where I can find the right size fitting? Or should I cut the hole larger, to accept a standard fitting? Right now I'm running clear plastic flexible tubing out the hole. It looks bad, and there's no good way to secure it to the hull. I've thought of routing the tubing to the sink in the forward head, and then seal off the drain in the bow.

I wouldn't run the tubing to the sink in the forward head. The anchor locker drain hose is bad about getting clogged with slime and debris from the anchor and from debris that naturally falls onto the locker. A nice short tube is easy to clear, but a long tube with several turns is more likely to get clogged, and more difficult to clear.
Just my thought
