JonC Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 I seem to remember @JDP had a bait tank on one of his boats that he sunk a few years ago. It had a forward facing pick up scoop on it? Or did I dream it ? I don’t generally dream about him. JDP 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy135 Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 @Saintly Fish has one that he bought from one of the PBSBAC boys, and I have one that the previous owner of my boat included as part of the sale. I'll dig it out and take a few pics, but it doesn't have scoops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odyssey Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 My two are run from bilge pumps. No scoop sadly... but allows me to keep bait alive when in Marina which is useful JonC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't remember sinking any, so maybe you were having a dream about me, sounds like a wet one!!!! Most boats here come with built in live bait tanks, as live bait fishing is so common all around the country. However my little zodiac didn't have anywhere for a tank so I made this one up.

Odyssey Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 Makes sure you got a lid if you’re leaving it for a while.... seagulls will steal your bait if you’re not careful 😬 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonC Posted January 19, 2021 Author Share Posted January 19, 2021 @JDPthats not the setup in my dream, the one I’m on about had a raw water scoop fitted over the transom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That has a raw water scoop in the video, it sits under the pump. It scoops water without the pump running as you move but when you stop you need to turn the pump on.

Hooked1980 Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 I have a vague memory of seeing a warrior with the boarding ladder adapted to make a deck wash whilst underway Think one of the ladder tubes was cut at 45 degrees with a hose and shut off valve added to the top of tube as you motor along the water was force up tube etc i have an idea it worked quite well was more powerful than you thought, but I suppose water being forced whilst doing excess of 20+ knots would be JonC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
