Live Well Hookup

[willy]

Mine was like that also, my first V old school. The boats came like your unless the customer ordered the live well option and then the dealer would set it up and some came from the factory set up if you bought a boat not off the floor.
Most guys use it for storage only. If I were you I would not do the thru hull pick up required. The reason being that they were marginal performers design wise, they tended to leak all over the floor. I purchased a stand alone that is much nicer and I can put it in or take it out as needed. I have not hard plumbed it though that is a option. Mine is easy to fill with a bucket in two seconds and it drains out a spot on top and I have a hose go over the wall into the splashwell area.
