[QUOTE="wasilvers, post: 179166, member: 1776"] You could do it with some creative plumbing and a self priming pump, or just use a normal bilge pump and extra length of piping. Then to fill it, you dump the bilge pump overboard and put the hose in the livewell. Then to pump it out, put the hose out to the water. It wouldn't be too hard (says the guy who has two thruhull on his boat because the first one wasn't good enough :roll: ) If you do some searching there are some good pictures of guys doing this. Then you can always use the bilge as a real bilge in case of emergency/rain.
