Not sure about the 250 in particular, but in general, the two bilges are not connected. For safety, there should be no direct path for fumes or bilge water to move between the engine room and the cabin.
Thank you LaRea! A friend with a slightly smaller Bayliner was surprised when I told him that I didn't think the bilges on my boat were connected because water from the front bilge didn't seem to be moving through any sort of channel to the engine room but rather was being pumped out separately. He seemed to think that most boats have a connection between the two. I was about to start pocking around, so thank you for saving me the trouble.
On mine the AC goes to the shower sump which the float switch is always broke so I just run my AC to the center bilge we never use the shower anyway on newer models the AC dumps to the rear bilge. Even though I know the center bilge float is OK it still accumulates quite a bit of water before it cycles so I make it a habit to manual run the blige every morning when I come out of the cabin. Believe me that shower sump float switch is a **** to change I rather do a Bravo Impeller any day than to change that thing.
