The hard tank will still fill but cannot get water into the bag,since there is no valve may have a line plugged or something. Will take the lines back off and see if air will blow through them,not sure what else it could be. Thanks!!

Followed the lines around and there is a valve to turn on under the floor

How does the bow bag drain? Just hooked mine up and it fills. Is it strictly a passive drain? I've played with both hoses that are not fill and don't have a suction on either. I've got a 90 degree fitting on the lower bag opening and the flow is not impeded.

Help please.

There should be a 3rd hose in there. Likely on the starboard side headed back towards the helm. That is where my drain hose is and hooks to that aft-starboard corner of the bag. You should have a fill, vent and drain hoses in the bow. Stand on your head and look in there...you'll find it.

I had the same concern..100 hrs later and bow bag never popped or leaked.. but i agree, shame on axis for such a shabby fiberglass job...watch you fingers when installing that bag you will get poked



I think the worst thing about the front bag is the poor design of the in/out/vent line placement! You couldn't convince me that this setup was ever used in the real world before production, because everything past being a triangle just sucks!

I do have all three hoses hooked up. I have the supply hose with the check valve on top. A vent hose on top and another drain hose on the bottom that looks to go under the dash.

I filled the bag about half full and then shifted to drain but nothing overt happened. No water shooting out like the other tanks.

Is there a pump connected like the other ones? Is it a passive drain into the bilge? I was afraid to fill it up more without knowing how to get rid of it.

Mine drains out the side the same as the front hard tank, it has its own pump. Sometimes mine takes a few seconds to prime and start pumping out not quite sure why that is.

Which bow bag do you have?

Yes, there is a drain pump for the bow bag. Mine does to completely drain until I accelerate to surf speeds and change the angle of the water when the bag is almost empty. If it's full, it will pump water out like it's supposed to. Fill it up and see what happens...worst case, you just disconnect a hose and drain water to your bilge. Then figure out what's not working.

My drain pump was mounted in the wrong spot according to the dealer, they fixed that but it would still only drain about half way then lose prime, we figured out we have to make sure all the air is out of the bag and it will now drain completely. You should be able to stand on the bag when it's full ( pump on )and force it out the drain port( mine is most front starboard side) that should tell you if it's a open path to the drain port and will prime the pump if it's working(can you hear it running?). My pump was mounted too high to stay primed.
