Will this fit the 2014 outback?

Iceman · 04-03-2018, 06:30 AM

Yes this tank will fit any model that the previous tank fit, pretty much every one except the Outfitter, that does not have a scuppered tank well.

Looks like a good improvement.

Maybe if a dealer was sitting on a bunch, otherwise they are being discontinued.

Darn, no specs on the site.. Is it the same size still? Got any Malibu's in the shop there? Wondering if that thing would plop nicely into my x-13..

8 gallon capacity. Has the removable clip on the drain tube if you want to run lower level. Or if you're using shrimp you can leave the drain open and it will be just enough for the shrimp.

Sorry to revive an older thread, but since I don't want to start a new thread, here we go!
Looking at getting this livewell for the Passport 12 I purchased from OEX Sunset Beach earlier this year.

Anyway, 2 questions:

1: Will this fit in the rear storage area of the Passport 12 and do the intake/drain line up with the scuppers?

2: Does the Sunset Beach location have any in stock and when can I come pick one up?? (Lockdown, hours changed, days open, etc.?)

Thank you, sir! I'll plan to pick one up this week.

Can's seem to get in touch with the Sunset Beach location to see if you guys have one in stock or what the "lockdown days/hours" are. If I can pick one up tomorrow or Friday, that'd be awesome!

You were kind enough to hand deliver my hobie compass a few years back all the way in South San Diego. I’d buy this if you were closer. Might be looking to upgrade my kayak in the near future, I will definitely reach out.

Has anyone wired one of these to their 12v lithium with a 12v to 6v converter?
