does anyone know of a faster way to fill bag's, I have a 2006 supra launch and it fill's slow.
Has anyone used a pump that you toss over the side and attach to one bag at a time.

Does your 06 have a dedicated pump for each sac/tank or does it have the single pump that pushes through sprinkler valves?
I just switched to Tallulah High Volume pumps. I can board 3600lbs of water in 3 minutes.
@wylietunes asked the good question. Plenty of options depending on how much you want to spend.Quote:

Reversible Pumps - different options here.
All work with switches. Wiring and plumbing might need to be changed.
They sell the quick fill pump that plugs into a cig lighter that you throw overboard. Works well. I've used the in floor ballast bags during light crew days. Have to change bag fittings. But you will have to do this every time you want to fill and empty. It turns into a PITA.

Just upgrade the manifold from the sprinkler valves to the electric actuated ball valves. I can fill mine in a lot less time than it took with the old style valves. And it was a cheap upgrade. I’m still using all the stock pumps and hoses.

While there is certainly a difference in flow rate between a sprinkler valve and an electric ball valve, the setup is still asking a single pump to fill multiple sacs. Adding one or two more pumps, so each sac/tank has its own dedicated fill pump may be a larger upfront investment, weigh the dollar to flow rate of the options.
I think it is one pump for all bags
Thank you, Do you have the number's and address to buy them

Make sure you order the two wire auto closing version!

I'm telling you...using an aerator pump and any kind of valving will be slow. Changing the valves can't make more than a few minutes difference. With the positive displacement Talullahs, I hit the switch and time 2.5 minutes to get the bags full. Another 2 minutes and your empty. I got tired of having to swim for 30 minutes to wait for the bags to fill...and then talk the family into driving around looking at houses while we waited 30 minutes for the bags to drain. My only regret is that I waited so long to change to Johnson pumps.
Thank you, now I am having trouble with the perfect pass it does not work, can it still control the engine. I don't know if it is on or off.
I have been looking for the fuse with no luck.
This is great Thankx.

Do you know how to disable the perfect pass, mine is not working.
I don't know if it is on or off, If it is on can it effect the operation of the boat.
Thankx i will try it
Still stock, I will make the change.
Thankx
Where is a good place to pick up some of these pumps.
Wakemakers has the best selection of pumps, hoses, valves and bags I have found in one website.
The stainless steel version of the US Solid motorized ball valve has a larger port size. (15mm for the brass and 20mm for the ss)Small increase in price but another flow restriction will be eliminated.
