[@TexasDigitalOutdoors]

Wow. This kid is insane dude.

[@NuSkwel]

That is genius to use that Brute tote, instead of an actual plastic livewell🤔 I was going to buy one for my build but I might do this.

[@richardcranium5839]

nice set up i like the fact of the three way valve and one pump to do it all

[@benniegarcia2826]

Hi Mike awesome modifications to Jon boats you and the tb nation give them the respect they deserve. I don’t ever comment. I’ve noticed some people comment about the foam issue in your modifications. Idk if you know that for every cubic ft of foam (12”x12”x12”) you get 62.38lbs of floatation. I highly recommend A/B foam because it’s USCG approved. If you want to be within the regulations for safety, you have to know the weight of the boat, outboard, and gas, first. Then figure how much gear and people weight is going to be onboard. Then you can put the correct amount of foam (62.38lbs) so if you put 8 cubic ft of foam that’s 499lbs of floatation (8x62.38=499). If you want a boat to pass USCG floatation regulation you get the empty boat no motors, batteries, gas, gear, ext. put it in the shallow water or a pool pull the plug let the boat fill to the top and it has to stay up kind of level for 18 hours without sinking completely. This is how boat companies get capacity weight on the boat and almost all companies over foam the boat knowing most likely average Joe is going to exceed the capacity. All for your tb nation info. Thanks

[@jimmiller4951]

Great video man. Step up your game and always use heat shrinks on your electrical . It is a must.

[@schism420420]

@@TinyBoatNation I guess I must have blinked my eyes when you were shrinking

[@stumpbumpers]

This information is invaluable.

[@gamebredfishing]

You are so dope doing this man I have not seen anyone else go so into depth on explaining the process you use for these tiny boats . Just so I know how much would it cost to turn a job boat into a tiny boat

[@djjackson0013]

Looks like an awesome kit! I found your channel a couple of months ago, your content is fantastic. I’m working on an old bass tracker pro17 right now. Thanks for all the info and ideas!

[@Ahead323]

DJ Jackson hey man I have a bass tracker pro17! Let me know how yours turns out

[@jacobm6870]

“barbed” is how the hoses attache to the fitting. the quick connect is a different example of how the hose attaches to the fitting. barbed doesn’t mean 90. you can have threaded fittings too.

[@gr8jpn]

I was laughing at his "in the boat world it means elbow..." Nope barbed is the type of fitting has nothing to do with elbow or not.

[@williamwallum1236]

Yeah. That was driving me nuts.

[@duraluminum]

"Barbed" means it has barbs or ridges on the fitting....like the "barb" on a fish hook.

[@daveengstrom9250]

All in all, not a bad video. It moves a little quickly in a few spots, but not impossible to follow. It was a bit difficult for me to keep track of where I was looking on the boat. Its hard to tell on a tight shot. Might be better if some of the shots start wider, then zoom in. A couple things I would have changed would have been to use 5200 or 4200 on the fittings instead of silicone (which is not permanent in water); and I would have moved the switches for the livewell somewhere else where water could not slop out and short them out. There are other livewell kits which automatically switch from circulate to recirculate when the boat comes up on plane. Those are nice because one does not have to remember to switch the valve every time one moves, then switch it back after the boat stops. They also have timers so they are set and forget. They come on and off by themselves every few minutes (depending on where one sets it).

[@rossprime8273]

Awesome video man! Wow you sure do say invaluable a lot! 😂😂😂

[@macsmith2092]

That's freaking awesome

[@MrCstone1]

both of those links to the kit say they're broken

[@boashna]

Flow rite been in my boat for 18 years and still working except if you need one part ansd have to pay over $20 for shipping working direct with them

[@BrackishWaterC]

It’s invaluable

[@alanyoung5841]

Rather than sealing the voids with a can foam where you don't want the expanding foam escape... use bathroom caulk its probably cheaper and easier to seal the small gaps. might be a bit messy but probably seal better

[@cryptocreek1557]

Aren't you afraid that thin of metal will not hold up? seems like just someone accidently kicking it would damage it.

[@timmillervideo]

Actually, in the AUTO position, water is drawn from both the livewell and the transom. It's a mix. When you are on plane, it will "automatically" only draw from the livewell and then return to drawing fresh when off plane.

[@opticplasma3733]

The link to the kit appears to be broken for me, is there an updated link?

[@chrisbarnett7073]

Hi Mike , I have been watching your Builds and LOVE HOW YOU Have done them . But, I have gotten totally lost on where to start. Can I give you my boat so you can showcase your skills .. I am an older gent that FINALLY have gotten a boat for weekend fishing with my grands.... I not looking for an extensive build . I would be satisfied with whatever you do.. Just something that would STAY AFLOAT for WEEKEND OF FUUN WITH THEM....

[@zackjohnson5782]

Hey, can that aerator nozzle be turned or does it only point down? I have a rather shallow live well so I'm looking to spray across the tank.

I would love to see you do some ideas on how to stabilize smaller the v Hull boats, like the kapten boat koller.. great idea from down under but way too expensive in the States shipping alone is like $700 thanks for all you do,,

[@mountainrambler1077]

I'm wanting to know how much rock salt to mix with 25 gallons of water for herring bait ?

[@TinyBoatNation]

I have no idea.

[@NuSkwel]

how would I do this if I have a Ranger 372v that has a livewell in the front and rear? Would I need an adaptor at the Tru-Hull to go to the 2nd livewell with another system?

[@TinyBoatNation]

I have no idea

[@reggaecutter]

I reached out to Bobby and haven't heard back. Could you holler at him for me Mike? I'm sort of new to boating all together. I don't have a lot of time to spend researching parts, it would be really nice/super convenient if I could get the whole set up in one purchased kit. ( I came up on a 15' Gregor, and the first thing I'm doing is a livewell.) Love your work Mike, thanks for all the videos!

can you do a video with a cooler and livewell together

I have a 25' offshore boat with a transom livewell, can the flowrite valve be mounted vertically instead of horizontally?

[@Eluderatnight]

It doesn't know which direction it is. May have a harder time with initial priming.

[@TheKanawa]

On a boat with 2 livewells do you need to have separate pumps and all or can you link them together?
