Hello everyone,
First let me say I no nothing when it comes to live wells as I never had to use one before..
So mt question is regarding my 2 live wells I have in the bow of my 1989 Sea Nymph SS175.
Can someone tell me is there a way to test both of my live wells while I am out of the water to make sure that there both in working order?
Now the other question is shouldn't I have 2 bilge pumps in my boat one to pump out any water that may get in my boat and the 2nd pump to run the 2 live wells? I ask as I am only see just the one bilge pump that is at the back of my boat..
So to any one who has a 1989 Sea Nymph SS175 or if any other similar Sea Nymph where would I find the 2nd bilge pump that runs my live wells..?
Now when I look at some other live wells in other boats I would see a pipe or tube that has lots of holes in so it looks like it is spaying in side the live well,
So I notice that when I open up both of my live wells compartment I do not have these tubes,the only thing I see inside my live wells is at the very bottom of the live wells is ether a inlet or out that allows the water to pump in or out if I am correct..
So can some one tell me am I missing this tube with all the holes that would spray water in my live wells to keep the water circulating any parts that should allow the water to be aerated?
I can say that I do have a switch on the dash that does say aeration so I would take it this switch is for the live wells,I do know I have a separate switch that says bilge pump for the bilge pump that is at the back of my boat and I do know that the switch does work..
I just want to make sure my live wells are working for next month as I have a very good friend who puts on what he calls the Buddy Bass Tournament which only consist of usually around 10 to 15 boats the last tournament which was just this past weekend and there was 13 boats,the next one he is hoping to get around 20 boats for the next Buddy Bass Tournament...
