First Ballast Fill for '16 242X...how?

[Glen]

@Julian I filled ballasts a few times last year, but first time out this year center ballast doesn't fill. I've tried on two trips since then and center doesn't fill. Wondering if anyone else has encountered this issue. Greg

Seems the pumps are vulnerable to shorting out. Now I know when a ballast pump does not work, quickly look at the 'system' screen. Verify the shorted pump. Shut down boat. Hard reboot at battery switch. Then all is well and get on with surfing. I surf intermittently so can't speak to cause. As too many trips happen in between.

This is a great tool for dealing with the quirky ballast system, trouble shooting, getting max fill or empty and winterizing
