Noticed this hose fitting atop the nozzle connected to nothing ... upon closer inspection when nozzle was taken off - found it is closed off by solid metal. But it has a well or scoop inside the jet that would direct water into it, and it could be opened/drilled out? It’s a tad under 3/4” diameter.... could it be an option to use jet to fill ballast or wash down? I scoured the manuals and parts diagrams, and found nothing.

It’s closed off from manufacturing, but there is a scoop molded in for it?
