I know several of the elite guys do this when running some of the really big water.


I have a plug in the over-flow hole at all times. Just don't forget to turn your livewell fill button off. I've caught a bass, put it in the livewell, hit the fill button, only to turn around later and see water all over the back deck lids because i forgot to turn the fill button off. sick


Been there done that. My Nitro doesn't have a lip on the back hatches and they have the plastic pull out bins in them (I guess that's what they're for, to be able to dump the water out). So the water just flows into the side storage hatches. hammer


Did it for the first time in the Skeeter last weekend. Learned they overflow to the bilge like they should... jack
