Are you going to install an on / off waterproof switch for the bait tank pump. On the battery box is the best place (keeps it most protected from the salt water). I have my battery box attached to the inside of the hull just to the side of the center hatch of my X Factor. It is held in place by 2 Velcro strips that are glued to the inside of the hull and the back of the battery box ( I used 3M weatherstrip cement), that keeps the box from sliding around, is still removable and does not take up room in the center hatch bag. Good luck on you project. Mark

Your bait tank is too far back
I think
Malibu have a tank that seat inside
That slanted hatch
And working with the suppers (drain & intake)
