[QUOTE="Centrarchidae, post: 347647, member: 12622"] Very nice boat. I do not use a live well as I am more into catch and release, but from a systems perspective it would be best if the live well had its own pump/drain system. Like you said if the bilge pump failed you have a real issue on your hands. If you end up connecting the drain lines together make sure you put a check valve between each pump and the connection point so one pump does not discharge right through the other. It might be better yet for the livewell to have its own outlet port because check valves fail also, but I sure dislike poking holes through a hull. Sounds like you think that way also. [/QUOTE]
