Amarine Made 12V 800 GPH livewell pump, Black, 800gph compact submersible cartridge, low 2A draw

Amarine Made 12V 800 GPH Livewell Pump is a compact submersible aerator cartridge that circulates and oxygenates livewell or bait tank water with just 2 amps of draw.

This cartridge-style livewell pump supplies up to 800 gallons per hour (3028 L/h) of flow from a 12V DC source, giving anglers efficient water turnover without taxing the battery. Built with stainless steel shafts, a high-impact housing and water-cooled motors, the unit is rated for intermittent submersible use in fresh or salt environments. It ships with straight and 90° outlet tails and a user manual for straightforward installation through common transom cutouts.

How will this pump keep bait and catch healthier on short trips?

The pump maintains constant water circulation and aeration inside livewells, which helps stabilize oxygen and temperature for short to medium outings. Its anti-airlock fins and two outlet options make it adaptable to different tank layouts and flow needs.

• 800 GPH (3028 L/h) flow rate for fast water turnover.
• Anti-airlock design ensures continuous circulation even at lowfill heights.
• Straight and 90° outlet tails for flexible hose routing.
• Low current draw (approx. 2 A) conserves battery during intermittent operation.

What are the installation and size considerations for a boat transom?

The cartridge measures 207 mm long with a 72 mm diameter and fits a 27 mm (1-1/16") transom cutout. It includes an extended threaded 90° intake (125 mm) and a twin-core ~1 m wire lead, simplifying through-hull placement and electrical connection.

• Transom cutout hole: 27 mm (1-1/16") recommended.
• Cartridge length 207 mm — extra length helps thicker transoms.
• Twin-core wire lead (~1 m) for straightforward wiring to 12V systems.
• Straight and 90° hose tails for tight or open installations.

Is this pump durable for saltwater use and simple to service?

Yes—stainless steel shafts and corrosion-resistant materials suit both fresh and saltwater environments when flushed and maintained. The cartridge is removable for cleaning or replacement, and the housing uses water-tight seals and ignition protection to prolong motor life.

• Stainless steel shafts resist corrosion in saltwater.
• High-impact plastic housing limits damage from knocks and vibrations.
• Water-cooled motor and moisture-tight seals extend service life.
• Cartridge design makes routine cleaning quick and easy.

How energy efficient and quiet is the Amarine Made 12V 800 GPH pump?

The pump is engineered for high capacity with minimal power draw, running around 2 amps on a 12V circuit, which preserves battery for trolling or electronics. Its water-cooled motor and balanced construction produce near-silent, vibration-free operation so it won’t disturb rods or livebait behavior.

• Only ~2 A current draw at 12V — energy efficient for intermittent use.
• Water-cooled, long-life motor reduces heat and wear.
• Silent and vibrationless running minimizes disturbance to bait.
• Ignition protection guards against electrical faults during installation.

Who is this for: The Amarine Made 12V 800 GPH Livewell Pump suits recreational anglers, tournament fishermen and anyone needing reliable intermittent aeration for livewells or bait tanks. It’s ideal for boats with limited installation space that require a compact, low-draw pump offering flexible outlet options, corrosion resistance for saltwater use, and easy servicing through a removable cartridge.
