Spares are you looking for SF or MA baitwells . . . Factory stuff or add on baitwells?


Here's My 20 MA baitwell. With a clear inspection plate for access to the trim tab fitting. I put a red light behind it. I just use it for garbage, but it's plumbed and works.

under seat, in front of console, anywhere but in the back corners. Just trying to get some ideas

actually the MA baitwell works great, although on an SF 20 it is an issue as down in FL we are big live bait guys.

On the SF I would think a well under a leaning post would be the best option, in front of the console I think would be them up too much, this was a serious issue with me too. I wanted a 20 but the SF had no baitwell space and I didn't think in a million years I could find a MA for what I could afford-but did -praise the lord he looked out for me on this one. I know your issue but leaning posts aren't cheap.

I am going for it and puting a 45 gallon Hammerhead livewell in the front of my console on a 20sf I had a 43 galllon kodiak there and the baits were fine. The two guys around me here in NJ that commercially catch livebait have there wells in front of there consoles to. I think different baits react different.

bottom of livewell is at deck level so as to only require gravity to drain:
