This happened to the previous owner of a 26' center console I
once owned.

He explained in detail how the pipe fitting to the under-deck well
came loose and the boat rapidly filled with water. He was several miles
off Jupiter inlet when this occurred and came close to capsizing but managed
to start the engines put the throttle down and high tail it back to safety
before it was too late.

An under deck live well? I've seen only a few of those on fishing
boats...and when I did, they gave me the shivers.
