Thanks Nick. I saw the kit for $119 but not sure if that will includes installation. I will probably going to just order parts and do it myself. I still have tubing and stuff left from building a bait tank for my Topwater.

It doesn't impact the down tube from the pump (super sturdy), it just cracks the elbow causing it to fall off or increase air bubbles/decrease flow. I'm sure Mark or I can DM you some pics. I would also place the on/off switch on side, not in the front of the hatch, your heel will shut it off all the time. Mark added a 9" h-rail to cover it and for a "oh shit bar".

By far my favorite mod, makes plaining so much easier, the only complaint is dines dont survive to long if packed in and slapping swells. Maks will last all day through whatever you through at em. Im wondering if the dines at the Bait barge are rarely cured though.

Hi Quang, the kit includes the tubing (about 8').
