Ballast problem

Best pics I could get.

Vent line coming thru floor should go directly to leg of the bow sac with NO check valve. Vent line for bow sac should be at the nose of the sac and go directly outside of the boat thru the hull with NO check valve.

With this setup, the bag will drain almost completely by the time the tank is empty.

So it seems the hard tank is probably pretty much empty, but the bow bag isn't draining into it properly?

To be clear, you mean the drain line through the floor (to hard tank) with no T to the vent and no check valve, and the fill line should have a T to the hose from the hard tank and to the vent, with no check valve?

I have 2 check valves and 3 Ts involved with the bow bag.

All you need is one hose going in from the hard tank at one of the legs (or both legs) and then a vent line from the tip, to the outside of the boat. No check valves for anything.

OK I'll have to re-plumb it. So it fills and drains from the bottom fitting on one leg? The top fitting is only for venting?
