Live well/ Seafari
Has anyone incorporated a live well system into a SeaFari? I have an Idea, but I'm open to opinions.
Here's my Plan:
My second battery in the back portside hatch can easily be relocated next to my first battery in the starboard side hatch. This would leave me more than enough room to fabricate a live well in the port side hatch. I was planning on using fiberglass to construct a well with a lip on the top so it could be pulled out for access to the bilge from both sides if necessary. My plan is to use the through hull/self-bailing hull right next to the hatch on the port side. It bails out the bottom of the hull and would be converted as an intake for the live well. This would still leave me with a functional starboard side self-bailing through hull. I was going to make the 90' elbow going to the well out of pvc in case a wave fills just my port side and I need to break the connection and use it to bail water. Any comments or suggestions would be great as I plan on starting this project this weekend.
