Axis Wakeboard Boat Forum

Has anyone plumbed and additional ballast bag into the existing plug and play system? I want to add one that sits in the walkway of my A24 that I can easily connect when I don't have many people in the boat and need additional bow weight. Any pictures would be helpful.

+1 on adding one in the walkway. I think that helps create the best wake having that extra weight in the walkway.

I am sure someone has the ones that I have seen over the years look like more trouble than just doing one manual fill and drain.

One of my winter projects is adding a reversible ballast pump and having a quick connect for filling and draining additional bags. I am also running 450lbs of lead in the nose that helps a lot.

I put in a reversible to run a supplemental bow bag on top of the seats in my T22. Wouldn't be hard to do the same in the walkway. The bag is set up with a quick disconnect to a "jumper" hose, which then goes to a hidden/tucked away hose in the bow with another quick disconnect. When the back is out it's as easy as plugging the hose in at both ends. When we're done with it, suck the bag raisin flat, disconnect the jumper hose, roll up the bag and put it away. Works great.

Shawn - any pictures? What is a "jumper" hose? And what do you mean by the "back is out"? I'd love to do this as I'm manually filling my bow bag often. Thanks.

Oops "back is out" should say "bag is out".

Sorry pics are kinda weak but hopefully your imagination can fill in the rest.



This is where the hose terminates from the pump. Then I have another short length of hose that I can connect to the bag when it's out:
