Need help on perfecting the surf wave behind my new boat - stock tanks in rear - 400# total, added 2 side sacs on top of the stock tanks (extra 520#) and one fat brick up front (155#). Was out this weekend with all tanks full, 2 adults and 5 teenager(in front) in boat and just couldn't get the right wake (too steep and washed out). We are surfing the starboard side due to rotation of the prop. Oh - and have center locker tube sac which I think is around 300#. So, my thoughts I have plenty of weight in boat, but not distributed correctly. would really appreciate anyone's comments/suggestions - thanks

What is your speed? <BR>You should set your perfect pass around 9.8 to 10.2. <BR>Do not put any extra weight on the port side. Do you have everyone sitting on the starboard side? <BR>Check the pic in my profile. I have about 500 lbs less than you, and we are using the same boat. <BR> <BR>(Message edited by timber on June 27, 2006)

Brian, <BR>your profile picture is what I am looking for - could you fill me in on your typical setup with the boat?? (people - where? and exact sac location/weights??) I am running around 12 MPH - usually have one person sitting behind driver. Thanks for your help!

Don, <BR>Set you perfect pass at 10 mph. I run a 400 sac in the rear and another 400 in the bow. Both on the starboard side. I fill the starboard and belly tank. I have EVERYONE sit behind the driver. That is the key. When we have to turn around, 2 or 3 guys will jump to the other side because it is hard to turn the boat with all the weight on one side. <BR>Let me know how it goes next time. <BR>I will see if I can find some more pic's. <BR> <BR>(Message edited by timber on June 27, 2006)
