Live well conversion

[T-Dave]

Anybody ever convert their live wells over to either an ice chest or dry storage? I have two on my boat and don't use either. Thinking of using the space instead of them sitting empty. Plus it will create more floor space.

Should I just disconnect the switches to prevent someone from turning them on and filling the boat or remove the pumps and stuff? Should I insulate them for fish boxes?

Any suggestions or advice is appreciated!

I use one on my boat for storage but make sure water can't get in while washing or raining. Some aren't water proof. I pulled the wire off the breaker and took out the overflow tube and put a plug in the inlet and overflow tube hole just to make sure.

Thanks. I think I will do the same with the rear one.

Anyone convert one to an ice chest?
