@JEVERS76 Thanks, good question. The outlet ports (or thru-hull vents) serve as vents for each bag. Even if you switch the reversible pumps, you'll still need a vent for each bag. I modified my vents for 2 reasons:
1. I added a fourth bag (400lb under midship bench seat behind driver), so had to drill for that.
2. I wanted all of my vent thru-hulls to match, and liked how the cheap plastic "chrome" gave a cleaner look. They are larger than the stock black plastic vents, so had to re-drill the original holes. I think it was 1 5/16".... wakemakers website explains it.
