He's refferring to the fact that WELLCRAFT intentionally made the livewell dump into the bilge. They were designed that way. If your bilge pump fails, you can actually sink the boat if your livewell is on. I also seen where a guy replaced his livewell pump, and didn't put a shut-off valve on it when he installed the high speed pick-up on the bottom of the hull. Needless to say his boat sank offshore. Whenever he was running on plane he was filling his bilge with water.
