I am looking at a 1985 Outrage 18 on craigslist. I currently have a classic Montauk and I would like to step up a little to an Outrage 18. One reason I am thinking of changing is the fact the Montauk is not truly self bailing. I have looked at a classic Outrage in the past but I can't remember if, or how, they were fully self bailing.

If I leave the classic Outrage tied at a dock and a storm dumps rain in it, will all the water run out of the back without the need for any sort of bilge pump? I am not a fan of boats that need a bilge pump to get rid of water that finds it's way into the cockpit.
