Does anyone know what the additional outlet on the starboard side that is the size of the bilge outlet? The manual does not show this. There's also an outlet on the port side with no mention in the manual. See the red arrows in the pictures below for both the port and starboard side. They don't seem to be connected to the rear ballasts as nothing comes out of them when emptying those ballasts.

Those are overflow holes for your ballast hard tanks in the rear. I asked the same thing. When I get some time when the wife and little one are at the beach together I'm going to take mine out and adjust my ballasts to fill until water starts to come out of those. As well as adjust the front bag to fill some more. It could fill significantly more than it does. I wish out tanks and front bag emptied out of those. That way it's a good visual representation of when it gets empty. I still have to run my pumps a little when I get home to get all the water out.

Thanks @suke. Does the in/out port on the hull get blocked by the trailer bunk and cause issues when draining at home? Or is there a different way to drain?

It's blocked-ish, but I'm still able to flow water out of both ports. It's not normally a whole lot of water a couple gallons out of each tank. Last time out I unhooked my bag and drained it out by hand. Just found out you can actually hold the down button on each tank on the screen and it forces the pump to run. 20200504_172719.jpg
