bryant, this is a 500gph pump that i put on the transom and ran the hose through the splashwell where the motor controls go and out of the rod boxes on the gunnel. then into a 35 gal plastic tank with a drain back over the splashwell. tsubaki is right on about the floor boxes, not good live wells at all. i put a pvc 45* on the intake so i can "scoop " water on plane without using the pump. if your interested in that type of set up, i can snap some pics of the interior.
