Axis Wakeboard Boat Forum

Today was the first day out on our new A22. The dealer told me not to fill the sacs until I had about 9 hours on the boat. While wakeboarding with the wedge down, I noticed the seat back cushions bouncing. Flipped them up and noticed the arrow sac in the bow was completely full. Spent the rest of the time boarding pumping water out.
Any suggestions?

Close the left hand ball valve in the access hole next to the driver seat, the front bag doesn't have an anti siphon valve so water pressure under the hull will fill it.

Wow, that sounds easy. And thanks for the fast reply.

I assume only close it when I do not intend to fill that bag?

That's what I did, now I use one of the valves off the rear pnp, if I'm not filling it on top of the seat, but closing the valve is just as easy.

mine does the oppisite and will drain out after i fill it if i dont shut the ball valve. would my pump be nfg?

A few options if the sac is draining:
1) Add a vented loop - viewtopic.php?f=14&t=137
2) Add a check valve - viewtopic.php?f=16&t=1857

Anyone have a pic of this valve?

On the first link I posted above about 2/3 of the way down the page there is an image with this description "this is the front bag fill pump and just above it is the tank vent line"

Thanks,
