I dunno. Most recirculating livewells I have seen on small boats
(like all the small boats I have owned) have a bronze inlet in the
bottom of the hull and an overflow that pumps out above the
waterline, again, so you know the overflow is working.


Not that I doubt your experience, but I have never seen an outflow for
a live well on a small boat.

Almost all live well circulation inlet/outlets are below the water
line.



Really? My SeaPros had outflow drains above the waterline, and my Parker
does, too.

That's what the stainless steel fitting is for on the transom...it's the
outflow hole for the live well.


Many boats have bait wells in the floor. They would have to drain below
the waterline.
