[QUOTE="Brine, post: 181374, member: 1053"] Hey Scott, I'm sure you could use a regular livewell pump to do this, but I'm not sure it's a good idea. When you add the pump, you'll need a screen/filter to keep from sucking junk into the pump. Traditionally, I see these screens mounted on the transom, and sometimes on the side of the hull below the waterline out of harms way (so to speak) from hitting fixed objects like rock/dirt/bunks of the trailer etc... and are easily accessible if you needed to remove grass/leaves etc from the screen. I'm trying to envision plumbing something up using the existing hole that would allow it to 1. not be an obstruction on the bottom of the boat and 2. have easy access where you need it (the strainer/filter). I just haven't seen it done before. Unfortunately, I'm guessing for good reason. I hope someone else can provide a solution for ya. I'm feeling a diagram will be involved :mrgreen: [/QUOTE]
