Hi strict, and thanks
I gelcoated the inside with a brush and plumbed it with a stand pipe and a sureflow baitmaster mag drive pump and went straight out the transom with a stainless 1 1/2 thru hull drain. Using the Lenght times width times height divided by 231 formula it came up with 38 1/2 gallons. I was also able to get away with Gel Coat on the outside as well. When I matched the color to the boat I saved a pint and used it for touch up on the outside.

Dave,
Very nice work. Since the well is rectangular, are you worried about the bait bunching up in the corners, or is the inside rounded off?

Scott,
I glassed in 1/4 round fiberglass skins in the corners and back filled with 2 part foam, so all the corners are rounded off.
