BJ, I like that idea with the below-deck livewell. I agree that it is a PITA keeping the water out of it. I have a relatively new and very good boat cover that was custom made (1500.00) which helps a lot. I also drilled a hole and made a small plug at the bottom of the livewell. I leave the plug out and let it drain into the bilge area when it is on the trailer. It does not leak and works very well, at least so far. I figure filling a small hole would be easy if I decide I dont like it........ I just got tired of constantly dealing with the issue. I may have tried your idea if I thought about it.
