I like the idea of cutting the livewell/bilge flooder out. Every time i used it, it would flood the bilge. (I don't mean like two inches of water either! Once i had water almost over my batteries!) I cut a hole in mine to clean out the drain holes in the bulkhead under the gas tank. I might go ahead and cut the entire livewell out. That would make it easier hooking up my bait pump and soon to be washdown rather than working through a 8" access plate. Maybe i could also put another gas tank in it? Whats the biggest tank i can get in there?

Mine also doubles as wet storage for light items. Thats the main problem with the CC is storage, dry or wet. Everytime I get inside my helm I think what a waste of space this is.......

I forgot to mention my V20 is a cuddy cabinet. The livewell is forward of the gas tank. So that would put more weight in the exact middle of the boat. Opening is 16" x33 1/2". Not sure about the depth. It will be determined if it ever quits raining here.
Also i have never used the livewell after it flooded my bilge. I think the only other thing i have ever used it for was thawing bait.
