those are pictures in my 2003 elite v drive. 11/2 thur-hull fitting with three pumps. two rear lockers and one to front c shaped sack.

Thanks guys, and good work.

spyderwinches 02-06-2010 8:50 AM

do you have to have a shut off valve after your intake and befor the pump?

jonblarc7 02-08-2010 6:11 AM

I'll post some out of my 95 super sport tonight I don't have any pic's at work.

wakemania 02-08-2010 8:00 AM

Curt, what kind of C shaped sack do you have in the bow? I've got an '03 Elite V also, and I want to do something in the bow.

denverd1 02-08-2010 8:52 AM

Nick, your pumps look like they're pretty low in the bilge, but do you have any issue priming with a mushroom intake? Just curious.. looks good.

talltigeguy 02-08-2010 11:27 AM

Curt, <BR> <BR>Do you have a shutoff incase the PVC breaks below the waterline?

curt489 02-08-2010 11:54 AM

Yea i have a 11/2 bras ball valve connected directly to the brass thru hull fitting. 11/2 pvc pipe out of the thruhull to the pumps. I can turn on all three pumps at one time. Each pump is rated at 10gpm @ 0 psi. More realisticly i am getting 7-8gpm with friction through tubing and elevation. I fill about 1000-1200lbs in ~ 7-10mins. My boat doesn't do well with a lot of weight the wake gets to washy. Personally i don't even notice the fill time by the time i back the boat in the water and my buddy parking the truck the sacks are full.

nick_in_ssp 02-08-2010 5:49 PM

4 out of the 5 pumps work first time but one pump doesn't always fill right away. I will be checking into it this spring to see what the deal is but I have always just delt with it filling it on and off a couple times then it works.
