Hey Snork, sent you a PM.
I'm still reprogramming timers in case anyone needs a ballast timer upgrade.

It looks like all you guys have 2007 and newer boats. I have a 2006 X15. Do I have the same type of timers for my ballast system? I am going to add 750s in the rear lockers this Spring, so just wondering what problems that I might run into if I do or don't have timers.

Anyone know what the fill rate is on the stock Jabsco pumps? I saw an old post which indicated about 10 GPM. Another post also stated that '08 boats had timers set at 20 minutes as opposed to 6 minutes for older models.
If this is correct, the ballast pump will add 83.5 lbs of water per minute to a ballast tank (1 gallon = 8.35lbs). My '08 X2 port and starboard tanks each add 150lbs of weight to the boat when filled to capacity. So it would take about 2 minutes to fill a tank. If I added a 750lbs bag to my port locker I would have a total of 900lbs - a fill time of just under 11 minutes. Isn't a timer set for a 20 minute runtime overkill? I'm just thinking out loud I suppose, but it does make me wonder why you would need that much time. Please share your opinions! |

imyourmaster - The Jabsco pumps are rated at 11 GPM. I tested one in my garage with some water tubs and measured an actual one to be 10.8 GPM. Here is my original thread: http://www.mastercraft.com/teamtalk/...ad.php?t=58210
I calculated that a 500 lb tank could be filled in 5.7 minutes. |

Re- installed Ballast Timers and everything works flawlessly, only problem is I have to turn down the stereo volume to hear when the tanks are empty
Best money spent on this X Star thus far |
