Author	Topic:   Livewell Installation
Gatorzone19	posted 12-10-2009 09:09 PM ET (US)         I am going to be putting a livewell on my 15 Sport. I already have the actual baitwell but have a few questions about the installation of the pump. I am wondering if I could do a thru hull on a 15' because I have never seen one on a 15 Whaler before. I am also wondering if there is a certain spot where I should put the thruhull? Or should I just go with a livewell pump with a bracket on the back of the boat? Any info is appreciated! Thanks!

You are not going to use the livewell everytime you go out. Or just tie the pickup line to the engine/side of the boat...
