248 BAY SERIES 23
Live Wells:
Your SEA PRO 248 BAY BOAT is equipped with two (2) 30 -
gallon pressurized Full - Fill livewells, one located on the
forward deck, and one located on the stern deck.
These livewells come with a customized clear acrylic lid
with the
SEA PRO logo engraved into the acrylic.
The full - fill, pump operated, feature reduces water
turbulence inside of the compartment, providing a more
stable environment, thus reducing stress and fatigue and
resulting in healthier, longer lasting bait.
The Livewell pumps and seacocks can be accessed through
the lazzarette door located in the floor of the cockpit.
The seacock is closed when the handle is in a horizontal
position, and is open when moved to a vertical position.
Located under the rear
bench seat are the drain
valves for each of the
livewells. The port valve
controls the livewell
located at the bow
(forward livewell), and the
starboard valve controls
the aft livewell.
The drain valves are closed when the handle is in a
Vertical position, and are open when moved to a
Horizontal position.
Prior to operating your livewell pumps, ensure you have
performed the following steps for each of the livewells
you intend to use:
1. Open the Seacock located at the bottom of the pump.
This allows water to enter the pump via the thru
- hull
fitting. Running your livewell pump dry could result
in damage to the pump.
2. Close the Drain Valve by moving the valve handle into
a Vertical position. This will close the drain and
allow water to fill the livewell tank.
