Finally done my 1st custom sump for a 54 corner bow.
So here it is, what you think?Fuge is on right,skimmer section on left,and return in the middle.Standard set-up with a little twist.

You may need to euro-brace it to prevent it from bowing out, but you shouldn't have a problem based on the shape.
