Max Ballast Questions

Perfect! Thanks!!

For the piggyback hoses did you make new ones and use the 90 degree fitting? I don’t think the hoses that came with the WM kit are long enough for me to drape over the midship “hump”.

What size hose do I need to order for the WM vent and what size check valves? Thanks for the help fellas!

Yes, I made my own hoses. I didn't buy the "Kit". I believe i used 1-1/8 Hose to plumb the bags together, only because they sent it to me by mistake and it was easier to get on the connectors.

I used 1" hose to TEE into the existing vent and used a 1" Check Valve

Awesome bud thanks again!!

Do you have G6 ballast? What are your fill times compared to stock? I’m guessing you also upgraded your rear bags?

For the fill and empty hoses you’re supposed to drill two holes through the hump. That’s why they seem short. If you go over the hump I would think you’ll have issues draining completely. Just takes about 5 minutes with a 2” hole saw.

If you use check valves they drain fine, I’ve never had an issue

Yeah I have G6. I believe it just takes a few more minutes to fill, not bad at all.

No I have the stock rear bags, mine had the front ports on them already.

Ok guys can y'all take a look at my layout and see if this is correct for making a vent system for the midship?

I dont have a vent system on mine, so I'm no help.

Do your bags fill and drain completely? Do you have G6 ballast as well? The only reason I’m adding a vent to the midship is because in the past people said they had issues with the bags not filling or draining completely. How long are your fill times? I know you moved your stock bags to the midship so not exactly apples to apples but should give me an idea of what to expect timewise if you have G6 ballast pumps.
