i know that the guys that all have the old mako's w/ the well in the floor like that hate them. I guess it is something that gets left open and then stepped in. wet/twisted ankle ruined many of their trips. most have converted the well to dry storage which doesn't get opened nearly as much, and then added a well somewhere else. Also, I think bending over /kneeling for the bait is a pain in seas, but not as big of a deal as stepping in the well...
If it were me I would have them make that into a fishbox w/ macerator (sp?) and then get a livewell that sits on top of deck.
Hope you don't mind the criticism. The boat is looking SWEET
