Guys, when I drain my bow bag it doesn't spit out the side like the other 3 tanks do. Does the sac just drain back out under the boat or into the belly tank?

Boat is a 2016 A20 with T series triangle sac.

You have 5 thru-hull fittings on the side. Two should be dedicated drains, one for bow and one for center.

I noticed today when I filled the belly tank it would over flow out of 1 at first and then a 2nd one. Why would it do that? It does the same in the rears.

Who installed your bags? Self or dealer?

The center tank (once full) will first overflow out of the vent and then if you leave it running it will eventually push water out the drain as well.

All bags will behave the same way. I usually encourage this behavior as it helps prime the drain pump.

im guessing the a20 is like the a24 and has a coupled hose up in the tip of the bow? if so did you undo that hose and attach each end to the bag?

The dealer installed. I followed the three hoses and they are all hooked up properly. 1 to vent, 1 to fill pump and the other to drain pump. I've heard of the pumps sometime getting buggered up with silicone when they install them. I'll play around with it some more next time I'm out.

I'm shopping for a front PNP bag for my '16 A20. I'm having a hard time figuring out what fits. Can you please provide more detail about the bag you mention? Ideally a link to it somewhere online would be the best, but any info you can share is appreciated.

I had to disassemble two of my pumps and clean out the extra sealant from when the factory installed the pumps and lines. Very easy to do once you find the pumps. Even helped the fill rate on a rear bag.

I got my sac from my local dealer, it is made by flyhigh. I would either contact flyhigh or your dealer. I know wakemakers will be making a custom triangle bag for the 2016 A20. They came down to boulderboats AZ and took Lazer measurements but probably won't be done until summer.
