    Winterizing livewell

    I have never winterized my live wells in any of my boats. We have the 2014 22SSX and I never even thought about it.. Worked fine this spring and we have 2 one under the seat and one in the back. If any thing run the pump for a few seconds after you pull the boat out.

    We may have a problem... Advice needed.

    I dont like that the Bennington sight forwards to the dealer either! What if I want to check on my dealer and make sure he is on the up and up? Just like last year I bought my boat it did not come with tie downs or a safty chain?? My dealer said they are all like that now. Sounded like BS to me...

    This is where you hit you tube and built you a bucket ac I would bet that at night it would make a big difference. I was planning on making one for just this reason and run it on a 12 volt fan, I saw one with a bucket a gallon of ice. Good luck to you
