    Livewell draining

    With my livewells in the closed position, whenever I run, I lose water in them. Do I need to relace the cables? I really don't want to lose fish on a long run, dye to the livewells drainging. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

    I had the same problem with my 2004 Skeeter. You can buy a rebuild kit for cheap money and will fix the problem.

    If you have an "auto" position set your valve to that and shoot water from garden hose into the inlet at back of boat. Sometimes they get trash in them and this can flush it out. It has worked for me.

    Otherwise sounds like rebuild time.
