Anyone have experiance with the complete Fly High Kit. Seems like its one stop shopping instead of building out a system on your own.

Do the factory pumps handle the extra strain/load ok? Seems like sometimes even the stock tanks don't want to drain?

My buddy is concerned plumbing in more ballast will void out his warranty? Any experiance there?

We just bought the two bags for the back of our boat-cost around 400, you do not need all that other stuff, which is a waste. Part it out its alot cheaper. Its really easy, I can give you the parts needed if you need, otherwise your dealer can set it all up for u. I heard a guy get them from sterling great lakes for $35.00 a bag (they were fly high also)-dam cheap on ebay.

We plumbed into the existing overflow vent off the tanks to the inlet of the bags works wonders-route the removed vent to the vent on the bag, you just need to reconfigure the timers. Your dealers service dept can email the steps to do so your self its very easy.

It doesnt put an extra load on the pumps-they are made to pump water.

I went over all of this with the owner of our dealer a few weeks ago and asked the warranty question, he stated it will NOT void any of the warranty, MC builds these boats with extra ballast in mind, the only exception is if someone routes the hose in a area where it gets piched and doesnt allow the vent to overflow as such they (MC factory) has seen a tank explode. Again use the 1" dia hose they have at your dealer which doesnt allow pinching.

Were going to be putting in the front sac this week-FYI you will need the front one if your planing to use it for boarding-or have a couple bodies in the front nose.
