Still, at 40 gallon capacity that would be 320 pounds added to your boat weight!!
THIS!!! Even 30 gallons is a lot of water and weight. Fill up those 40 gallon live wells, add a 200+lb buddy, and you just gained near 600 lbs.
Your engine will know it.
On a BCB specific subject, the live wells are the best in the market. Deep, and the spray bars are the cats meow. Pun intended.
