Bait tank bilge pump

[gear junkie]

This is on my 2012 PA. The bilge pump was a little too big (2013 should fit fine) so I had to remove the 2 opposite screw holes with my dremel and mount on a piece of star board to bring it up a little higher. The hose came from home depot and the bulkhead thru fittings came from a store called hueneme port supply....they sell all kind of great stuff. To give the reader a price diffence, the 1" bulk head fitting cost $5. Also have a cam clamp on the inlet hose which allows fast draining. The tank came from petco and is used to store dog food. The hose for the bilge pump is long enough if I ever needed to pump out the kayak, I could do this easily...disconnect the cam clamp, put the inlet hose in the kayak and pump away. Total price as you see is about $120 in material.

Just a couple pumps every 15 minutes or so does the bait fine. The white pipe inside is the drain and the water level inside can be raised or lowered by tilting the drain pipe up or down.
