Hey strick...boat looks great. Can you explain your livewell connections? I'm getting ready to do mine...above deck, under the seat and I want to be able to pump it out into my fish tank.
Bill I'm not sure what you mean by "pump it into your fish tank". My live well drain's overboard via two thru hulls.
My tank is a 27 gallon kodiac. The business end has three fittings in the middle of the tank. The top and middle fittings are for the over flow drain. The black valve (the one Bobbby talked about)allows you to adjust the water level in the tank. The bottom middle fitting is to drain the tank at the end of the day. The thru hull for the bait tank overflow is on my port side and is even with the level of the bait tank if it were half full. The thru hull for the bait tank drain is on the starboard side and is about even with the floor of the boat. The fitting on the bottom right of the bait tank is were the water pumps into to fill the tank. I have seacocks on all the thru hulls. E mail me if you have more questions.
