    Default 16' Fill Times Really Short?

    My 16' Helix takes 3:30 to fill the center tank and 7:30 to fill the 1100's in the rear locker. This seems really short compared to the one minute rule most follow. I'm not sure why.

    Anyone else have a similar time?

    Are you sure those bags and tank are really full? Or are you just going buy what the screen is telling you?

    Could they have air in them?

    I know my bow seems to always be full of air.

    Are they completely drained when you drain them ?

    Also a good question. I miss the draining coming out the side of the boat. I've dumped tons of water from the bow hard tank onto the boat ramp several times. I try to make it a habit of turning the empty on after we pull the boat out now.

    I don't think they have air in there. I run the fill pumps until water is pouring consistently out of the drain hole. The rear bags seem completely full.

    When I drain them, I pick up the rear bags to get all the water out. There is always some water in there but not much at all.

    Water comes out of my boat when the bow still has a lot of air in it. I reach into the port amp locker and twist the "blow off valve" to let air out.

    what size bags? I'm assuming you have the reversible pumps? In my Supra I'm filling each of my rear 1,000 pounds in 8 minutes. My center and bow actually take a little bit longer.
