Thanks, but my live well if over filled goes into battery / fuel cell compartment. But I will check plumbing.. thanks for idea.

Gator.....thats probably because your live well is under the same deck as your batterys and fuel compartment. My live well is in front of my console so it runs out into the floor and then into the bilge. The pump....I forget how many gallons per min but it pumps faster than that stand pipe can take it out. Like I say....I fill it half way then turn my timer on and the timed system keeps it full without over flowing.

Yea, their under the same deck. Heck you know you had same boat. I added a recirculation pump and aireator pump. I need to add a timer to recirculation pump. And pay more attention when filling livewell. I can run air pump all day with no worries, it doesn't draw anything...

The water re- circulation pump.

I say if you need it go for it, good for saftey and all but even tho you buy one check that plumbing. It will end the problrm for sure!

That's what I thought... I did check for leaks and there wasn't any. My pumps are 500gph. So I belive your right "G" they pump water in too fast for drain.

Doesn't ur live well fill nozzle have an adjustment to restrict water flow? Most of them have an adjustment to make it spray more or less and that will let less water into the live well while filling and maybe the overflow pipe can handle that..

Nope, its old school....1981
