Re: simple baitwell setup
Fred,
Glad you like the rig. Let me try to answer your questions.
Because the pump is always in or on the water it does not need a primer.
There is no check valve but I installed a ball shutoff valve in the intake hose to keep tank full if I choose to shut off the pump. A check valve would do the same and might be an improvement.
There is one intake (3/4"?) and one overflow (1 1/2?) both over the motor well. A third hose seen at the forward bottom of the tank is to empty the tank and send the water to the port scupper.
