So I have 2 400 lb sacs I'm not currently using, would they work well if I put them under the bow seats and plumbed them in instead of buying an IBS sac? Also I have 2 Thru hulls currently could I tee a third reversible pump into one of them or would it slow them down a lot?

You could do this but they aren't going to fit very well or fill all the way. You also probably need two separate lines to fill them. May be more trouble than selling them and getting the right sac for the application.

I repurposed the factory 400 sack to be under the Port seats in my XLV. I could have put the other one under the starboard seats, but we surf regular most the time,...

I added a single reversible pump for this bag.


Wakemakers has some info on what size thru hull will support various pump configurations...
