Mission Delta is a rip off. So many other cheaper options out there.

+1 on that. My buddy over on the Supra forum bought a Inland Curl (?eBay ?) for $130/140. Does not fall off the 242 hull. He just posted some pics.
Build one for cheaper with a suction handle, cutting boards, ss screws, and some time.
They all do the same thing - delay convergence off the back of the boat.

Got out today. The ballast system worked perfect. Pretty slow. Found the rule was replaced by a pyrana 800 or 1100, cant tell without taking it out. Think Im gonna get some 1100 or 1200 and some new through hulls in a litte. Overall the electric ball valves were perfect.
I've got my wakemakers bagbuster 1150s coming in soon. Ill see how patient I can be with those fill times.
Goods weeks worth done and water tested. Got the new stereo deck installed and working with the remotes, got the bimini top fixed, fixed leak in front ballast that was flooding my bilge with new pyrana 800. Slight hesitation as times on throttle. Thought might be bad gas or low octane. Addressed that, still a problem. Ordered fuel filter. Got my amp, sub and tower speakers going in soon.
Cool!

Fill time pushing 20 minutes with factory bags. Got reversibles and individual thru hulls in, wakemakers 1140s in the back. Can't wait to get out.Attachment 26294
Looking good!

I’m about to install the exact same pump kit in my 07 XLV. Any chance you could snap pics of where you put the 2 new thru hulls?
Anything surprising about the install you that you wish you had known?

Here's where I put mine. It is working for me. They are out of the way of pretty much everything.

Port. The one with the yellow handle is the fresh water intake valve for cooling I just added.

Here is where I put my pumps. Keeps everything out of the way of the engine compartment. Yup I know they are upside down. Been fine for four seasons now.

I'll take pics tomorrow. I installed the thru hulls on the right (starboard) side in almost exactly the same location. pretty easy install. drilled 2 holes from the battery compartment into center hold, then into helm to run the battery harnesses. the wakemakers setup was fantastic. The only hitch I had was tightening the bronze thru hull, spun a little tightening down.
I used the existing drain tubing as overflow with check valves, had to extend to the top of the bags. I used the extra 3/4 tubing and fittings from the fill lines. Kept with the existing 3/4 lines for the center as well. didn't think it was worth pulling floor up.
Thank you very much. 5:00 mentioned to me that he had to order extra hose...but the wakemakers kit has changed a bit since he did it several years ago. Was the hose length sufficient for your XLV?
For the electrical, did you use the existing fuse panel?

1" thru hulls to 1" ball valves to T1200 Tsunami pumps to 1.25" line to 1" check valves. Line strung up as high as possible in the rear lockers to prevent passive filling. 3/4" vent line on each bag. T1200 pump on each drain going to thru hull on the opposite side (to lessen passive draining when listed). Center bag has a vented loop to prevent passive filling. Drain and vent thru hulls are above the top of the bag, so no worries with passive draining on front bag.
I also have a reversible off the factory scupper intake. That fills a 400 bag under the surfside seat and another 250 under the surfside bow seat. That has check-valves on the drains to help suck the bag dry as well as a check valve on the fill line to enable an above water line drain off a Tee.
No ball valves or manifolds.
I am looking to do something like this for my 07 LSV I recently upgraded to the 910s from wakemakers, but the stock gravity 3 takes about 40 min to fill them. Can you send me a list of the parts you used? I would really appreciate it. I really don’t want to invest in the wake makers ballast upgrade for this boat just want faster fill times. Any help is appreciated
Wow 40 minutes. Check out my post on upgrading the Gravity 3. It takes me 18 minutes to fill using 800 gpm pumps. I don’t know how long the single pump set up took because I re-did the whole system before I put the boat on the water.

40 mins!!! [emoji44]
Eff that. You definitely need the reversible pump upgrade. Put on your big boy pants and do it.
