Adding Pro Ballast to 2014 210

[jondavis08]

My New to me 2014 210 doesn't have pro ballast and I of course see this as a necessity. Been working with the guys at wakemakers and have everything ordered to add a plug and play system. I'm a little confused on how the pro ballast works. Attached is the sketch that Wakemakers gave me. My impression of a plug and play was that once the hard tanks are full the bags would then fill(or is this how piggy back system works). In this sketch it appears that the water will be evenly distributed to both the hard tanks and soft at the same time. I know for surfing I'll want everything filled but I'm assuming this isn't the case for wakeboarding(even though i know my buddies will try). Is it easy to get a set wakeboard ballast setting with this system as shown?

Yep. It seems counterintuitive, but the bag and hard tank fill at the same time. The diagram is right.

I believe my added bags are in series with hard tanks not parallel

Yes both fill at same time. We just look at the weight and have it set on wakeboard. I bet you can get it reprogrammed so your dash reads correctly on ballast weight

Mine overflow and I really like the way it works. I'm sure it's really a matter of what you get used to working with.

If you are in good with ur dealer, they can give you the dealer access code to reprogram linc to "tell" your pumps you have to proballast set up. Basically, it just changes the pump timers to stay on longer.

Where is the overflow/vent in the diagram (that exits the boat)?

Thanks! Copy and pasted on my phone so something didn't carry over correctly, yes this is the link I was trying to post.

Finally got a chance to get in the boat today. Plan is to tee off 6 inches from the pump. Should I attach the fill to the bottom or the top of the sac? I'm having trouble figuring out how long I want the tubing to be. I want the sac to lay flat but also have room to fill it full.

Attach to the bottom. Follow the diagram you already have.
