My boat has stock center ballasts, and 650 pound rears. I'd like to upgrade to the much bigger bag, but I have no idea how you guys are making these things fit and hope for some enlightenment.
Since my boat was an r&d boat, there may be some differences. The area underneath the walk through windshield (beneath the sear). appears to have 2 levels. The lower level is where the bag sits, and it goes to the stern. The bag is contained by a couple of cross supports, that form an upper level where you could put some skis. When the 650 pound bag is completely filled, there appears to be no more room in the lower level.
So the question, for those that have an 1100 pound bag in the center, is how do you position the bag to get more water in there? Do you feed it through the sterm opening underneath the playpen and double it back? Does my R&D boat have some supports that restrict my ability to get that bigger bag in that yours do not?
I'll take a picture if this is confusing.
