Anyone have experience with these new sacks from FLyHigh? I am looking into getting the 400lb pair for my v-drive and the tube for the ski locker. But I see they have a special Typhoon pump, is that some kind of special pump that can only fill those sacks? Rather, is that the only pump that can fill those sacks?

FYI...

Thanks.

I have a pair in my Supra. They are GREAT sacs. They are very, very thick. The sacs come with an adapter that will fit any standard pump, so don't worry, they will work with your current pump.

I bough the V-drive sacs and the smaller pair for the front. Very high quality sacs made with river rafting material (holds up running over rocks so it should be fine in a boat). I'd recommend the tsunami pump, but the sacs come with adapters so you can use whatever pump

Are they easy to drain? And if you use the Tsunami pump on the 400 pound V-Drive sacs, how long does the fill/drain process take?

I just picked up a couple of the side sacs for the bow of my boat from boarditup.com. Really nice quality and they also sell many types of adapters for permanent installs. Check out this link to see all the adapters:

FatBoy, mine drain completely dry, but I did a special modification to make sure they would. I'll be posting an article on KneeboardPlanet.com within the next couple of weeks that will highlight the ballast system in my boat. Wink

wetirish, I ordered my custom sacs straight from BF International. I'd call them and ask if you can place an order.

My customs are awesome. Same material as the Pro X series. Tough, high quality.
