Baitwell System
Your boat features a baitwell. A
typical baitwell system features:
• A hi-speed pickup located on
the underside of the hull.
• A seacock valve is attached
to the pickup. The seacock
allows for immediate shut-
down if needed.
• A water pump. This pump is
normally located in the bilge
area or possibly higher in a
storage area.
The water continues from the
pump to the aerator valve and into
the baitwell. On some models, a Y-
valve allows water to be directed
to the raw water wash down from this system. Typically, baitwells have an over-
flow stand pipe and a full drain system. The baitwell switch is on or near the main
dash panel. The water pump will pump a constant flow of water into the baitwell
when the seacock is open and the switch is on.
