I think this XL live well is so expensive. Comments below:

- battery cover should remain in position when bungees is detached.
- the drain pipe must always be down the holes. Issue is wWhen you raise the drain pipe , that's side of the live well goes out of position and you have to wiggle the live well to align it back to drain pipe. Not major but I expect excellent design for the price.
- rod holder must have built in bungees.

- strap is too long . Must have a way to hide or fold it away neatly. Maybe I should just cut once I figured there's no reason to keep it that long for PA
- I think the handle should be h rail. Now I can see 400 dollars worth of live well....


If this is less than 300, I will probably just say all the good things about it

Noted and passed along to engineering.

I agree. H-rail integration would be great as well.
