My friend has a 2003 VLX and we are trying to figure out how much ballast there is. <BR> <BR>It has the hard tanks on either side of the engine and the bag in the floor under the walkway. <BR> <BR>Could you help me out with how much each one weighs when full! <BR> <BR>Thanks

I think 200 lbs a side in rear and 500 lbs center, but it could be 450. Grand total of 850 or 900.

It should be 900lbs. Two 200's and a 500 in the middle. Thats what my 04 has.

I don't have an answer, but for 04 Malibu went to the hard center tank.

I would go to <a href="http://www.themalibucrew.com" target="_blank">www.themalibucrew.com</a> and ask that forum.

i used to have an 02 and i was told the rear tanks are 250's and the center is 500. So a 1000 pounds when completely full.

Ya Pete Ur right it should have 2 side 250's and the one 500 center one!!

2 250's in the rear and 400 in the center. I have the same boat. Actually getting the full 400 in the center bag has been debated though. What ever it is, it isn't quite enough.... lol..

Chad is correct!

I have an early production 04 VLX (it has a bag, not hard tank in the ski locker), and our local certified scale shows about 380lbs when full....I have not weighed the rear tanks.

Greg, and correct me if I am wrong but you probably got it a completley full when weighing it, but in the boat it never quite fills up all the way, so it is even less that 380 when in the boat.

Chad, I was being generous for a stock bag...I have a different bag in the locker and that's what I got out of it.
