Vittle Vault livewell for Ocean Kayak Big Game 2

[aznative96]

Aloha to All,

I am in the process of designing and building a livewell for a new Big Game II that I ordered and haven't gotten in yet. I'm using a Vittle Vault 40 and working out my best options for the plumbing. I remember that the majority of the San Diego guys were just hanging the overflow hose and pump over the sides but I'm trying for a cleaner look so I'm looking to mount the pump inlet pipe down through the scupper.

Waiting for my kayak to come in and measure the scupper depth would be one way to go but I was hoping someone else out there might already have a BGII and could measure it for me so I can either continue with the design or know that I have to change direction and go back to my plan of mounting the pump on the side of the tank and using a priming bulb.

Mahalo,
Phil
