Section 7 - Livewell System
320 Outrage-Owner’s Manual
Livewell
The 320 Outrage is equipped with an
45 Gal. (170L)livewell bucket that is
located aft of the helm pilot seat. The
livewell system’s primary function is
to keep baitfish alive by circulating
seawater into the livewell bucket. The raw water
pump, seacocks and plumbing that service the sys-
tem can be reached through the access doors located
on the aft wall inside the console. Fittings connected
to the livewell bucket and the livewell flow control
valve can be reached through an access panel located
on the starboard side of the prep station base.
OPERATION:
The livewell can be filled by using the switch marked
“LIVEWELL” on the instrument panel. Before fill-
ing the livewell, you must make certain the hull
seacock and the livewell flow control valve are in
the open position. The livewell also has a pair of
drain plugs that are used to adjust the amount of wa-
ter that stays in the livewell. There is a plug that will
drain the entire livewell located in the base of the
livewell, the other plug can be used between the two
overflow fittings on the starboard side of the livewell,
they can be used to adjust the level of water in the
livewell.
