As long as no trash gets under the activating mechanism they are fine. Trash + arm jam = dead battery....

If you don't leave your boat in the water why would you need that?

My overflow on the live well has a problem. Not sure on what to do. I have two pumps on my live well, 1 pumps water in, and 1 pumps water from one end of live well to spray bar on other end. It has a stove pipe overflow. If you leave the pump that fills the live well on too long it starts overflowing into bottom of boat. Instead of going out overflow back into lake. I think the problem is the drain for overflow is too far down (beneath water surface) to allow water to drain. Anyhow, I'm putting this float switch in as a precaution to keep from filling boat with water.

The first thing I do when I get a new boat is either put a float switch on the bilge or replace it with an automatic bilge pump!!!! Too many years on the Mississippi River taught me that lesson!!!!

Last time crappiehooker and I went fishing, we really got busy catching fish and forgot to turn live well fill pump off... I was on the bow and he was in the passenger seat, he said "hey Gator is the boat sinking?"... Filled whole battery/ fuel cell compartment up... Good thing I had a bulge pump... Or our day would of been done....
Do any of ya have a clue as to why live well overflow isn't working?

Gator, If the overflow wasnt working the water would come over the top, not go in the bilge. You probably have a cracked fitting or leaky hose in the bilge. next time you turn the pump on look in the bilge and see if waters coming in.
