i have finally decided to get some extra weight for the boat. i am looking at Fly High Pro X Series V-drive Sacs to go in the storage in th back of the boat. i was wondering if i really needed weight in the front. will the wake be washhed out or what. but i do have the taps 2 which can put the nose down. <BR>thanks for the help

In the Tige's it's more important to weight the front than the rear. Most the 24V's should enjoy a 50/50 weight distribution or even w/ a slight bit more weight up front than in back.

Here is someone that has a product that might be up your alley. It's at <a href="http://www.tigeaz.com/" target="_blank">http://www.tigeaz.com/</a> and you might want to call them and ask them about the Rival System. The entire ballast system comes with everything that you need to install. After you are done calling them, visit <a href="http://www.tigeowners.com/forum" target="_blank">www.tigeowners.com/forum</a> which also has a write up about the install of this product. Good luck.

what would the wake be like if i just had weight in the back

really peaky, and it would end about 55' from the boat. <BR> <BR>lol

I would imagine that the meaty wake will thin out a little bit and increase the height of the wake then. Adding more weight to the front of the boat makes the wake longer in length (less white wash).
