Strick, You are a funny guy. I keep trying to match you, but no matter what I do, you one up me. I show you a decent rack and you show a better one. :-)
Anyway, some may think I am trying to boast, I am not, LLL/TM was a nice girl, certainly pleasant on the eyes and good company, but she was no S.Y.T.
S.Y.T was a traveler, LLL/TM was a flyer. Each has their merits.
LLL/TM did two tours over to the Bahamas with me, on the last one, I had some friends come down from up Nort. Now before I go on, let me say------, nah, I'll just tell the story.
Aneyhoo, "Bill and Ann" come down, they are both in their 50's, Bill had gone through his mid-life, divorced his wife (almost but not yet), hooked up with Ann (same as Bill), who's soon to be ex's are home, aneyway------. They come down for 4 days. Now, I had gone through a pretty bad deal with S.Y.T, found LLL/TM, she came to the islands, I was in the islands, life was pretty good. Never in a million years did I think having a pretty 20 something LL Blond (my date) on a boat, (my boat) affect a 50 something good looking girl(Bill's date). Big mistake! Suddenly my my "yacht" became VERY small, j---- the hissing and p-----! Anyway, learned from that one. Oh well------.
Ok, seems Strick has gotten us down the path of game. Now LLL/TM wasn't much for getting "game" although I did get here to hold some, and she wasn't none to thrilled about that.
And we did get LLLL/TM and "Ann" to "Play nice" together every now and then.

Not boring me. The sea, a nice vessel and a beautiful woman has been the demise of many a sailor, (not to mention the rum)!. This thread is particularly interesting to me in that I'm crazy about boats, especially the ones you redo, and I've longed for spending much more time on the water. I've been a bilge rat all my life, just never had the chance to build many stories the likes of yours.

Be patient Oh Great One!
I can't let all the goodies out of the bag at once. ;-)
The "vertical thing" is the water inlet, custom countersunk in the livewell, so as the little fishes don't bump their noggin. Or in my case, so the conch don't "konk" themselves.
I'll dig up a pic.

Dam Oly that's some serious plumbing you have going on with all the white hoses. I was figuring that it may be something to do with the water level. Did you make the bait tank your self?

First of all, I don't like the flimsy plastic bilge hose. I use Shields Sanitation hose.
Some of the hose is extra length.
Two (2) bilge pumps.
One (1) "Konkwell" pump out.
One (1) pressure washdown pump, can run either fresh or salt washdown.
Yes, I made the baitwell myself, made a "one off" mold and away we went.
