What is our Livewell Creation process?
It’s essential to repair your boat’s gelcoat to maintain your boat’s integrity. The process involves inspection and preparation, color matching, gelcoat application, curing, sanding and shaping, and polishing and finishing.
Consultation and Design
The process begins with a consultation to understand the customer’s specific needs, boat type, and fishing style. Researchers take measurements to determine the ideal size, shape, and location of the livewell. The discussion covers extra features like aeration systems, insulation, drainage, and lighting. These help the livewell meet performance needs.
Material Selection and Fabrication
We choose high-quality fiberglass, gelcoat, and marine-grade materials. This ensures durability in tough marine conditions. Next, we fabricate the livewell using precision molding and fiberglass lamination techniques. Finally, we install reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.
Plumbing and Aeration System Installation
A properly functioning livewell requires a reliable plumbing system. This includes installing intake and drainage systems, aerators, and pumps to maintain proper oxygen levels and water circulation. We use high-quality hoses, valves, and fittings to ensure leak-proof and efficient operation.
Gelcoat and Finishing
The livewell has a gelcoat finish, making it smooth, watertight, and nice. It also matches the boat’s style. We sand and polish to ensure a seamless integration with the vessel. If you request it, we can add custom colors and branding elements.
Installation and Testing
The last step is to install the livewell in the boat. Make sure it fits well and connects to the water and drainage systems. Once installed, the team thoroughly tests the system for leaks, water circulation efficiency, and aeration performance. Finally, we make adjustments as needed to optimize functionality.
At Savage Marine Gelcoat & Fiberglass Repair, we are proud to offer high-quality livewells. Our livewells are custom-built for durability and efficiency. Whether you are upgrading a system or building a new one, we make sure every livewell meets high standards. This is important for both serious anglers and recreational boaters.
