Our Piggyback upgrade allows you to quickly and easily Increase the capacity of your Nautique wakeboard boat's factory ballast system by up to 1,450 pounds!
If you're disappointed with the size and quality of the wakeboard or wakesurfing wake with the stock ballast system and don't want to mess with throwing pumps over the side of the boat then this is the system for you. Our Nautique PiggyBack Ballast System Upgrade is designed to integrate with your factory ballast system, be controlled using the switches on your dash, and not require any additional effort to fill and drain.
How It Works
The PiggyBack Ballast System is designed to use of the existing pumps, hoses and switches in your Nautique, and expands the capacity of your factory rear ballast tanks from 250lbs. to a maximum of 1,700lbs. per side! This kit includes everything needed for the installation, including a the ballast bag of your choice, prefabricated adapters to connect to the factory system and all of the necessary fittings, hoses and clamps. We even use Fly High's Flow-Rite high quality quick connect system so you can remove the bag easily for cleaning or storage.
As the name implies, this Ballast System Add-On is connected inline with the overflow of the factory ballast tank, allowing it to PiggyBack on the factory system. In the factory configuration when the in-floor hard tank is full excess water is dumped overboard through the vent hose. With the PiggyBack system installed, excess water from the hard tank flows into the Fly High ballast bag, allowing it to fill after the factory tank is full. Once the new bag is full (which means the factory tank is full), excess water will flow out of the overflow of the bag, and through the factory thru-hull connector, allowing the system to function exactly the same as the stock ballast setup, but with the additional capacity of up to 1,450 pounds.
Draining is exactly the opposite; as the factory drain pump remove water from the tank, gravity forces water out of the Fly High bag and into the hard tank until both ballast bag and tank are empty.
Installation
One simple and completely reversible change is required to install the PiggyBack system, and the entire process takes less than 20 minutes.
