It works like a charm. Just make sure the oil is warmed up. I'll usually let mine drain overnight, just to give it plenty of time; but the majority of the oil is out in 15 minutes, even faster if the oil is hot.

I have a stringer down the center of the boat. And I have two bilge plugs, one on either side.
There is a guy with a Baja that had twins, and one bilge plug that was at the same place as the stringer (stringer was notched out). He added two additional drain plugs, and leaves the hoses attached to them permanently. He only pulls those two plugs when changing the oil. It looks and works sweet.
