i have fatsacks in my boat now but i want to connect them and make it so i dont have to sit there with the pump and pump one up and then the other. i want to put it on a valve where it will pump up simultaneously. i saw this in someones boat but dont know how i should go about doing it. i am also interested in making it a pushbutton in the dash if its possible. thanks for the help

Derek do a search for ballast systems on here there has been some great discussions with diagrams and pictures of what people have done.

Derek,

I put a full ballast system in my 2001 Supra SSV( before they came standard). It works awesome and is hooked up to two switches. Works great and gives me 1000lbs in 10 minutes.
E-mail me and i will tell you how to do it. Let me know what supply's you have(fat sacs, pumps) and then we can estimate how much it will be to complete. Also let me know what boat you are putting it in and where yo uwant to put it.
