Unfortunately, my boat doesn't have a built-in livewell.

I've got a livewell made out of a 48 quart cooler with the Marine Metals Products Super Saver Kit which is a kit that came with a 12 volt pump, hose, and brackets.

It's worked pretty good the past 4 years, but I've been wondering if there's a better way. The only issues I have are that it gets tough on a hot day (when temps are 90+ degrees) to keep fish alive for very long, and it doesn't seal closed very well so when the lake is windy/rough a bit of water sloshes out while driving down the lake and always seems find my shoes to make them good and wet.

I'd appreciate it if you guys could share your cooler livewell pictures and any tips of what has worked well for you.
