Questions about fat sacs

Not knowing much about fat sacs, what are the best sacs to get? Who makes 440lb sacs for each side of the engine compartment? Do you need to buy the pump seperately? Can they interconnect or do you need two pumps or to pump each one up seperately? How long does it take to fill a 440lb sac? And is emptying them the same as filling them up, just using the pump on reverse?

I use the V-Drive set, pair of 400 pounders. Quick Connect fittings are the best. Snag a Tsunami pump and you should be set. Unless you want to plumb in ballast...

Yes you need to buy the pump, it doesn't come with the sacs. You fill them up one at a time, so you only need one pump. It takes about 5-10 min to fill one up.

A set of Pro X series Nautique 440# sac's and a Tsunami is just under $300

Does the Tsunami pump come with the quick connect fittings or do you have to buy them seperately?

Thanks
