I've got a small livewell in a little one man boat. It just has a standard type drain hole in the bottom.....just a 5/8 hole in the fiberglass floor in the livewell is all. It simply fills up to waterlevel and drains back out when you trailer the boat.
I'd like to add a pump to draw in fresh water. If I was to simply put two thru hull fittings in the bottom of live well floor....and hook a pump to one...pumping/pulling water into well with that hole......would it simply drain as fast as pumped in out the other hole... keeping it level with the water outside boat? Am I thinking right or is there a better way of handling this?
Its kind of an "island" type well...it you get me meaning...mounted right on the middle of the floor. Single/thin walled type deal.
Any suggestions or ideas on how to handle this best? Thanks for replies.
