    Typically, it is not serviceable from the outer hull, there is usually a nut or threaded collar holding it in place behind the outer hull.  If you don't have another way to access areas like this,  usually you have to cut out a portion of the inner deck to install an access plate (deck plate) near where you can reach the area you want to service.   They come in a number of sizes, shapes and styles.  They are available through marine suppliers like West Marine, Defender, Overton's and others.
