Plumbing sumo sacks into hard tanks

[jakewake 0]

Just wondering if anyone has ever plumbed sumo sacks into hard tank lines. I have a 2013 supreme v226.

Hard tanks in the rear are filled via gravity and drained the same way. There would be no natural way to piggy add on sacks on top of these. 

Why not just Y the current PnP fill/drain hoses to the bags you're thinking of adding? Do you already have PnP bags plumbed in the lockers?

If you want to remove the hard tanks, yes, you can reuse the lines. Wakemakers sells a "tank buster" kit that is exactly that.

No quick fill on a 13 best to pull the tanks and replace with custom enzo style sacks for maximum wake

H is the man on this subject......he is right for max usage of space pull the tank...... I have a 13 v226 and pulling tanks will be my winter project......right now I do have the 1000 lb Sumo sacs and I chose to add extra pumps to fill them.  I decided to plumb a couple of 375 lb flyhigh bags that I already had into the hard tank lines and put them under the side seats.  This way the fill time on Sumo sac and the hard tank with 375 sac are close to the same time.  I add 375 lbs of tractor weights, yes I said tractor weights, against the stern  wall of the surf side locker and have 150 lbs of lead in the bow center locker.....the wave is big and has good push with my normal small crew, but when I get a chance to get my big beer drinking buddy's out, that extra weight makes the wave epic!

To actually answer your question, plumb your Sumo fill off of your hard tank vent and vent Sumo with a check valve.....don't forget to add a check valve in the factory fill line in between the pump and the hard tank or all that water you pump into the tank and Sumo will gravity drain if you still have the factory tsunami pumps.
