    How did you plumb your IBS to fill from ski locker bag? Wakemakers told me it wouldn't work when I was going to do it.

    Just use the vent line off your center sac as the new fill/drain for the IBS and then add a new vent line to the IBS using the thru hull that was originally used for the center sac.

    You can do the same thing if you don't have reversibles-- almost. Run a line from the top port on the front of your center bag up (either all the way around or drill a hole in the floor somewhere up front like I did) to the top of the IBS bag. Run a vent line from the other top port on the IBS bag back to the drain line or your center bag (pretty high up close to the outlet). I used a "Y" connector and a check valve on each side. I also drilled a new thru hull next to the one for the center drain and dedicated that to the IBS drain. I added a drain pump to the driver's side rear leg of the IBS bag. Some have added two drain pumps. My IBS is not very big so I go with one and it gets done about the same time as the center bag.

    I did exactly what he said. I did replace the vent line with a larger size hose to the IBS. Same size as runs from the pump to the bags, I think it is 1 inch.

    Also, look up suck gate on the message board here and make one. Best $25 I've ever spent on the boat.
