Livewell locale

[Capt Nads]

Opinions please; Would it be ok to put a livewell in a thwart seat by cutting a section out of the seat?
Would this compromise the structural integrity of the hull?
If it does go in there what materials would be better to use?

When i say cut a section out of the seat I mean the top section leaving the risers/upright sections
Any feedback from members who have done this or seen this mod would be appreciated

Cheers Brad

how big a well do you need?

i tried to get a 90 litre well to fit, only need 60 but you need room for it to slop arpound etc or it goes everywhere

i have a 385 explorer and its impossible to fit, so went for a ally tank which sits in the middle of the boat

Cheers Juggs, it's to go in a 420 explorer so i think the dimensions are the same i think i might have to look at other options as i'm looking forabout 110l or so
