This is the molded plastic bait tank that fits in the rear hatch opening of the Malibu eXtreme. It comes without the pump kit, which can be obtained at OEX. I have never used it, and don't plan to, so it's for sale. $40 obo. PM if interested.

The picture is an example and is not the actual tank. Mine is exactly the same, except black in color.

Will it fit an X Factor rear hatch?

Does it have to fit in the rear? can it fit in the front? Is it possible to do an in-hull pump to the tank? I think that would be neat...then I could have like a little table top in my lap to eat and stuff. Seems like the weight would then be balanced in the middle also, and I can get my bait a lot easier that way. Let me know.

Johnny, no it will not fit the X-Factor. They make a different tank for that one.

Grego, I will have to check and see if the front hatch is deep enough for the tank to slide down all the way into it. I think you would have a problem though, with nowhere comfortable for your legs to sit.

Not to mention, throw off your surf-landing steeze.

You shut up

You're right, forgot about that...and the depth also...had visions of the one like I had for my tandem, but that one was way too big. Although this would be for my cousin's xtreme so who cares:luxhello: (j/k)

Corey -
I'm interested... would it fit the newer eXtreme hull with the three channels running lengthwise (max depth 9 1/4" from top of channel to top of hatch ring)?
Thanx-

Sale is pending...

mrJB, I'm not sure about that. If the sale falls through, I will check and get back with you. Thanks.
