    livewell busted

    Has anyone ever had there livewell bust/crack? I was fishing a tournament on Eufaula (OK) yesterday and had to run through some rough water. May have hit a few pretty hard but not the worst I've ever seen, but at the next stop I hear the pumps sucking air. Look in well and there may be 1-2 inchs of water left. come to find out, there is a crack along the ridge near the back of well about 8-10 inches long. Even with fill pump on the level will only get just above recirc. pump inlet and of course all the water is just dumping into the boat. Sure hope it will be under warranty. I've had that boat 1 year at the first of this month.

    yep, thats under warrenty, the rear cap is screwed down, must be removed and then the well removed, new one has to have the holes drilled in it for piping. Not to hard to do.

    The exact same thing happened to me yesterday. Boat is only 3 months old. What were you able to find out about the fix? Thanks.
