[QUOTE="richg99, post: 410976, member: 4376"] When I had keel type sailboats, I always carried a set of these wooden through-hull plugs. I only had to use one once, but I was mighty glad to have them on board. https://www.defender.com/product3.jsp?path=-1|135|2290137&id=275638 [img]https://www.defender.com/images/552181.jpg[/img] As far as checking the live well to see if it is the offending part, I guess I'd just put the boat in the driveway, pour a few gallons of water into the live well and see what happens. After a while, open the plug on the transom and see if the Livewell drains there. Experiment until you understand what is working and what is not. If the Livewell loses water after you put water in, then the hose or fittings are leaking. If it holds water, you can probably eliminate it from the list of possible issues. regards, richg99 [/QUOTE]
