Depending on the vintage of your America, you might want to plug the cockpit drain while underway if it drains directly into the centerboard trunk.  On later years (possibly 1975 and later) the cockpit drained thru a thru hull on the starboard side, an improvement as I have had both and the side drain is better in many ways.
If you have a sink you might want to stick a plug in it while underway also.
