    Changing Pro Ballast Bags to Ronix Eight 3

    Hello guys. Wondering if I could get some total noob help with my ballast. I have the Pro Ballast in my 2016 SAN 210. I have a pair of Ronix Eight 3 CNT 800 bags from an old boat. Can someone tell me if these will "drop in" to this ballast area without any modifications? If so, do i need different adapters or fittings, or will the existing fittings on the boat simply screw into the fittings on the bags? Sorry for what may seem like a basic question, but I have zero technical ability beyond just moving the fitting from one bag to the other. Thanks

    Hey Vic. I don't have personal experience with your question but my experience with swapping out my pro ballast to WakeMAKERS custom tells me you probably won't have an easy swap. I will say that piggy back bags are not rocket science and pretty easy to remove. I would take your current bags out and see how they compare to your Ronix bags. Good luck.

      Thanks for the input. I was hoping i could just swap the bags. Seemed like it shouldnt be hard. Boat is out on the lake right now, I'll pull it out tomorrow and have a closer look. I was hoping someone here had done this before me. Hopefully someone will chime in.

        Ronix uses 1” NPT threads. I’m pretty sure the pro bags use 3/4” NPT. You can pick up some adapters and Teflon tape at just about any hardware store.
