I removed the live well pump from the transom of my boat and I would like to solid fitting to fill the 1"dia hole. I have done some hunting on the internet but can only find fittings for hoses. Anyone know where I can get a solid one?

Thanks!
 
maybe give this a try

this should work and you can remove it later when you want to set up your livewell again
 
Grainger has all kinds of plugs if you leave the livewell thru hull fitting in.

Thanks for your suggestions guys. I couldn't find quite what I wanted so I figured I would make something. Gonna put this on either side of hole add some 5200 and tighten it up. Shouldn't leak and will be able to remove if I have to.

These are two sentences that don't go together to well. You might want to use 4200 if you want to remove it later.

That will be a job for the next guy! I will never take it off.
 
Figured this was a little less permanent than marine-tex. I am converting the live well to a cooler, keeping the drain hooked up but no need for the intake.
