Now it just needs a nice bank of rod holders. Sweet tank, the paint is a nice touch, really clean looking.

The PA should do fine, unless you're a 400 lb gorilla man.

just a tip for future builders

im not a plumber but most flipper style check valves needs to be in a vertical position.
if the check valve is horizontal, the check valve needs to be oriented to where the check valve is hinged from the top

something like this

You should consider adding hinges to the cooler cover. I have a similar cooler at home and the darn top cover keeps coming off. Just my 2cents.

Nice work!

Thats a good idea Ive noticed if it opens to far it will roll out of the molded groove

Well I tested my tank on the water today..... Calm water .... The water level could stand to be about two inches lower good active baits might see freedom when the lid was opened. Other then that it worked great......I could stand with no problem, completely stable. The cost of garage research and development.....
