[QUOTE="llbaker2, post: 455487, member: 22848"] The video is basically the same setup/idea as my livewells except I just have one 3/4 inch hole in center of well. Still seems to me that since the boat is riding higher when planing that the level would drop at least partially and then refill when not planing. Guess they used a two inch standpipe to prevent all the water from draining out when on plane. Guess if I put minnows in well I will need to put some sort of screen over pipe end or use a perforated bucket or I will lose some of them out the pipe opening. Like you said I guess I need to leave hatch open and watch water level when planing and when off plane to see if it is doing what I think. Should be easy enough to do. Have one tank under helm and one under passenger seat. Can just leave passenger seat lid open when underway so can watch it. Guess I got confused because I've read about how most livewells have pumps and aerators when mine doesn't. Guess I will just go with it and see how how well it works. See how long fish stay alive.
