Thanks guys, I wish I was that good Rwilson....that is my buddy in the pics. He did most of the work. At first we planned on making a redneck bait tank but it morphed into this. And I'm glad it did. It turned out about 100 times better than I ever thought! It will be interesting to see how well it holds up. I still have not found anywhere local to get the pump system Reel told me to get. I'm not too worried about it b/c I'll be at the beach this weekend and near a West Marine. They should have it if not sold out.

Shawsee, get yourself a round or oval tub/container b/t 20 - 30 gallons....I'll tell you exactly what we did and all the materials you need.
Piece of cake! Reely!

I don't think it was actually stucco...heck I don't know what it is. It is some kind of rubberized waterproof coating over fiberglass mesh. I do remember him saying he could use the other stuff but it would be 10 x heavier than this stuff. Thanks Tsub! I'll send the compliments to my buddy.

BS - I've had it for 8 or 10 years. One of my bro-in-laws got it for me. I'm not sure where he got it but it did not contain liquid, rather I think it was a container for some sort of beads. I wish I knew where to get my hands on more.
All of my projects seem to be on this 8 - 10 year plan, go figure.

That is awesome! Isnt' there a west marine in Columbia?
Also, I have two of those tubs, and would love to build one of those! Can you pm me the materials etc? What a great job! Is it portable, or will it be mounted in the boat... Thanks again. Craigan. Oh, and i'm just on the other side of columbia above camden, sc. Nice to find other scarolinians here.

Oh, and I bought the tubs I have I got from a yardsale one day. The guy said they used to contain some sort of beads like Blue said, and were used at a local plant somewhere down near Conway. Not much help, but for what it's worth the guy was selling them for 50 cents a piece and the two I have left have lids with them.
