2010 SS211 Baitwells Pump and Valve Access

I have a 2010 SS211 with the Flow-Rite System 4 baitwells in the bow and stern. How does one gain access to change the pump and/or value systems? I can see the stern valve on the starboard side through the engine port but cannot reach it. I have not been able to locate the pump for the stern baitwell but figure it must be close. I cannot find the pump or valve for the bow baitwell and would like to know how to put my hands on it. I may need to change the valves for both of them as they are very hard to actuate to the fill, recirculate, and empty positions. I have tried lubricating the cable and that doesn't seem to help so I suspect the valves need to be changed.

Here is what Hurricane states regarding pump location:"The live well pump is in the back of the boat by the bilge pump just off to starboard side. It can be accessed through the access plate."
I attached some Flow-Rite documentation that you might find helpful if you don't have it already.2012 SD237 I/O Mercruiser 5.0L MPI ECT/ Bravo 32012 Load Rite Elite Tandem axle trailer -

I got a confirmation regarding the location of the livewells. The pumps and valves that operate the front & rear livewells are both located in the rear of the boat. There are none in the front. Unfortunately, I don't have any better info regarding accessing them.2012 SD237 I/O Mercruiser 5.0L MPI ECT/ Bravo 32012 Load Rite Elite Tandem axle trailer

U can change the cartridge pumps from the access ports by the engine . They just twist off, , be sure to move the tab that keeps the pump in place... long arms help .

I bought my SS211 new in 2012 and have had issues since it was 1 week old with the flow valves and pumps. The dealer was not helpful and put many band-aids instead of actual repairs. I Cut the back small access points together and added a larger deck lid to help me. The center console was not researched enough before mass production.
