By the way, our new (to us) 37/40+ has a small electric pump wired to a 12v.
rocker switch near the sink. In our case, the pump draws the water from the
refrigerator and pumps it out a bent stainless tube directed into the sink. I
replaced the pump (which had died) with a cheap camper version rather than the
"marine" one. The cost was about $25.00. It is really nice to be able to flip
a switch vs. our old version of manually pumping the cooler in our previous C&C
27, which, on a particularly warm and active weekend in Chicago could result in
3 gallons or so of water.
That said, on our C&C 27, we decided NOT to plumb the drain directly into the
sink drain, as an aggressive sail could result in water flowing into the
cooler.
So, consider the heel of the boat before tying into the sink drain.
Just my $.02 worth,

ice box drain to?
On my '85 33-2 we have the ice box drain connected to the foot pump under the
sink.
This way we can just pump the water out of the ice box into the sink when
needed.
We have two foot pumps: 1) for water from the water tank, 2) Water from ice box.

On my 85 , it drains into the bilge , it often clogged , I cut out an access
panel and found the hose was about a foot longer than necessary and had a loop
in it (wtf) once cut to proper length and loop removed , no issues .
