Does anyone know off the top how many GPM the stock 16' Moombas (Mondo) Ballast pumps are? Just planning to configure my bigger bags.

I believe a SC told me roughly 100 gallons per minute. I could be mistaken though.

I believe that is correct for the jabsco reversible pumps. At least the older ones. I believe the newer larger ones are faster.

That's the rule of thumb I have used on my '13 OBV and it seems to be pretty close.

To be clear, it is probably 100 lbs per minute, which is about 12 GPM. 100 gallons per minute would be +/-830 lbs per minute (which would be nice).

Yup, sorry. LBS per minute.

Thanks guys. That makes sense then why the timers are set the way they are stock. 6:30 for backs and 10:00 min for front and IBS.
