Try using acitone on the residue from removing the vinyl sheet. The bilge pump should have a hose that pumps either overboard or into the motor well. Make sure that every screw in the boat which screws into the fiberglass has a marine bedding compound on the screws threads to keep water out of the glass and from rotting the wood imbedded in it. 3M 4200 is fine to use as a bedding compound. There are many to choose from. Don't use silicone.
