Ballast System...

Has anyone installed a, semi-automated, ballast system? I'm tossing around the idea of putting a couple sacks in my boat and then hooking the two hoses from the sacks to a place I can access them and then just hook up the pump from there. I don't want to drill holes in the boat just for this.

Re: Ballast System...

Its possible. I have not done it on my boat, but I have helped a friend do it.
Wakeworld.com has a great DIY ballast article. It goes pretty in depth about the whole process. We basically used the exact same thing as shown on there.

Check it out here.
