Re: Aerators for Tarpon 140
"Ditto" but I would be interested in this as well. I do know that the Malibu Stealth nine and possibly the other larger stealth models do have some sort of bait well in that location. I am close to buying a T140 as well and it would be nice to have an easy to reach bait well. There is already a small hatch cover there, but not that big. It might be possible to somehow fit a larger rectangular tank under the existing cover (provided there is enough space under it) but not sure how you would get it into place unless there is access from the one in the bow, then the problem would be to figure a way to attach an inlet and discharge hose. A through hull fitting would be ideal. When I had my Sea Ray, I had a professionally installed tank built on the dive platform and the pickup was a permanent, through the hull fixture that would draw water up from beneath the boat. Of course since it was an inboard/outboard, there was access to the engine compartment (and hull) providing easy access to the fitting, pump, bilge pump e.t.c.
BTW...how do you like your Tarpon? Is there anything I should be aware of? Is a rudder necessary? (I have an opportunity to get a used one with rudder, anchor, rod holder for $795, or a brand new one (with good warranty) for $975.))
Excuse my "wordiness", I tend to get a bit verbose at times.
