Livewells tend to be the thing that gets butchered on boats. My current boat has the stand pipe configuration on the livewell. First trip out I caught a fish threw it in the livewell and turned it on. About 20 minutes later I noticed the back if the boat was low. I flipped the bilge pump on and the livewell off. Side note the bilge pump discharge line was full of dirt dauber nest and wouldn't punp out until cleared. Back to the livewell part that created the mess. Previous owner had replaced the pump with a higher flow rate pump. Bigger is better right. The new pump producted more water than the stand pipe could remove. Overflowing the livewell and flooding the bilge of the boat. I had to place a vavle in the line to throttle the pump output to what the drain pipe would handle.
Haha. I had the exact same problem in my last boat but my bilge didnt work at all. Kinda stupid looking back that I didnt just replace it for $30 but I would pull the plug and run up on plane if I ever got water in it.
