Thanks for your replies all. I am leaning to just converting it into a cooler for drinks ect. and keeping the drain in place for easy draining of ice melting.. since the extra room in the boat isn't huge. I do have one other question if I do decide to make it a cooler. The aerator pump in the rear has failed and been taken out. Do they sell a plug that fits the hole for easy reversal if I wanted to have a livewell again? Or make it an easy fix for when I do sell the boat it wont hinder the price of the boat. I have found replacement fittings, but do they sell these made to plug a hole? A nut and bolt type plug that doesn't have a hole in the middle? Dumb question but I cant find one anywhere. I would think someone would have one http://www.starmarinedepot.com/seachoice-thru-hull-connector-chrome-1-1%2F8/pzz7537.html? gclid=CJfpttiZ2MUCFQuFaQodzAEAuw A plug like this but solid anyone?

Sorry, if this question is a noob question.. I needed to find out how exactly this works.. I have spoken with boat owners and they tell me of a fill & aeration button.. All I have is a Aeration button, but it fills the livewell. Some mention a plug... I have no plug.. I just am looking for someone who can tell me the operations of how this works on my boat. Only thing I can figure is when I turn switch on.. It fills and the second tube is just a run off... It just doesn't seem like a very good set up at all. The overflow I wouldn't think would keep up with the aerator pumping water into the live well...Anyone have this set up that can advise me of the works of it? I am having to replace the pump and wanted to find out if this set up is worth keeping or if a modified setup is better. Thanks for any advise you all have
