I purchased a 1992 ProCraft 170 Combo a couple of weeks ago. I took it out the other evening and everything appears to work fine. Under the throttle, I found the switch shown in the picture. Can anyone tell me what it does? I moved it from one position to the other and I didn't notice any change in anything.

Thanks,

Looks like "live well" filler/dumper to me.

Not sure at this point. I'll try to take a look this weekend.

It's the ejection seat control for the passenger (usally the Admiral). Hmmm...must not be hooked up...

We've got a switch just like that on our bass boat and it opens and closes the drain for the livewells.

Or, it could be some duel fuel tank setup from old?

Thanks for the replies. I'll give the livewell drain a try next time I'm out.
