    I saw a post that Mikes Liquid did on a similar boat so copied where he mounted the pump. Plus I have a fuel lift pump under the cover of the gas inlet that typically lasts about 5 yrs do made it easy to remove and get to. He can hook you up with all the necessary pumps, bags, fittings and hoses as well. Well might not have my little quick fitting for the existing drain but he has the fittings if you want to drill the inlet which I would do if someone didn’t want me drilling into the boat

    I actually swapped out to the W704 as the W705 was bowing my seat back out too much. The seat didn’t have enough support to hold it. The W704 will still pop the back locker lid open if you over fill it. I just watch for it to raise up then drop it down a little. Not sure on the exact time for the 370# as I typically fill it soon as we leave the dock. Guessing 5 min max. I should have done this a long time ago. When it’s just a few of us in the boat is when I use my Y valves to fill my seat bag up. Might add a second pump to it later on down the road.

    What real nice even tubing if I have someone sitting in the bow, I’ll add about half the bag to bring the nose up to prevent any rollars from going over.

        Don’t forget to get some lead (leadwake.com)or steel to throw under the rear seat. I have about 250-300# under there, betting I could some smaller bags and get another 50# under it

          Here are a couple pictures of ours sitting in Okanagan Lake, BC Canada.

          I will drill a hole for a thru hull, although the scares me a little to do so. Just think it will be cleaner! Good to know on the w705/w704.

            I am going to look at a 2003 20i with 340 hours on Sunday. Sounds like I should just plan to do this kind of install over the winter? That way its ready to go next year.

              I’d highly recommend installing a similar system. So much easier and faster filling and draining. Plus you can adjust on the fly if you need to.
