[QUOTE="Msky_Hntr, post: 440233, member: 22805"] Wow so I got everything tore down to the livewell and figured out they are welded to the boat hull tube. My idea was to move them back between the float pods to lower the front seats. Have any of you guys tried to remove these before ot would it be better to just cut them down lower and build over them? This part is really wrecking my intended layout for this boat. I think the solution is to cut the fill tube loose from the hull with a hole saw and install these. Then I can hook a hose up and mount the livewell in a different location. I am a little scared of mounting something like this below the water line but is seems like a good plan. [img]https://images.jamestowndistributors.com/woeimages/plumbing/250_250/12263.jpg[/img] Instead of bumping my own thread I will just update posts. Plan C The tube is welded into the hull for a fitting. I am going to find a hole saw that fits over the od if the welded tube. I will cut the weld from inside the the livewell. that will leave a nice stub to attach a hose to. I can use a T fitting to feed the pump and I will have access to it after I build a new lower seat platform. [/QUOTE]
