The T22, T23 and A20 all share the same under seat bow sac and only fills to 400lbs. Wakemakers laser measured these boats and made a really nice tapered sac that places the overflow and fill ports at the very tip of the bag so they end up in the hollow spot of the bow and won't push up any cushions when full.

Here is the CAD. I installed one in my 16 A20, I'll test it out Saturday.

If you figure way to run the plumbing for on top of the seats in the bow. Post some pics of how you do this I would be interested in doing the same to mine.

I'd like to see this as well. I just picked up a 650lb sumo bag to throw on top of the seats and would prefer to use the built in pump system instead of a throw over every time i wanted to fill it.

I plumbed in a reversible pump for the supplemental bow sack.

In my A22 I have the Wakemaker's bow sac that's designed for the A22, it fits and works great but it's just not enough weight. I want to add 150-200 lbs of lead in the nose but being in Canada is making it difficult to get Lead Wake bags shipped up here and no one in Canada seems to make anything similar. Might have to make my own.

Ya man, that space only holds around 300lbs, have you thought about a 400 in the walkway from the helm to the front seat, you'd have to pull the playpen cushion but could totally sit and walk all over a fly high 400 16x16x42 sac.

Did you add a pump or did you replace the existing pump with something different?

I added a pump. It's completely separate from the factory bow ballast.
