Livewell

Any suggestions/ tips for adding a livewell to my 99 2320 SC?

Do you have a raw water intake w/ seacock installed?

FYI, I have both types rigged for use on my boat, the cooler plumbed to be an expedient 'always on the boat' livewell, and a portable 55-gallon drum livewell (blue in color, as fragile baits last MUCH longer!).

Tommy at Hammerhead marine in Tampa, Fl built mine for our 2120.
It's 43 gallons, thru plummed w/ bronze seacocks going to and from the beneath deck plumbing.
Here's a pic. Cost installed was about $2000.

I have a 30 gallon keep alive portable tank, I hook it up to the wash down pump and run the drain out the scupper works great, when when im not fishing I can leave it on the dock so it doesn't take up room.

The Livewell is the easy part....It's getting the plumbing under the deck to it is where the work is..... or the impossibility without serious surgery.

This is why I went with what I have. I've been there with perminate livewells taking up deck space.

While this container was expensive revelity for what it is. The idea is height so it can just drain over the side and small footprint so it's not hogging deck space. Yet it is portable for quick add or removal.

I put a 30 gallon re-circuatling live well in my 1801. Fabricated a leaning post in fireglas and added to the tank. Tank is plumbed under the deck and permanently mounted aft of the console. The though deck plumbing is water tight. Live well from Pacific Marine.

I do the same while chartering on the Chesapeake all summer. I am keeping Norfolk Spot alive and it works great.
