    Default ballast tank priming issue

    Hey, Jay Warren...Any other ideas besides the 25 to 30 mph forced prime?

    I'm not familiar with the onboard ballast system considering my boat was built before wakeboards ever existed. But you might try just leaving a few gals of water in the ballast tank instead of emptying t all the way. It's just a thought. Ahh I wish the only thing I had to worry about was a ballast system, I long for EFI and a hydraulic wakeplate.

    Default Prime the pump

    You have to prime it by driving. I start filling as I back off of the trailer. Seems to get it started ok.
