My old tige 2200v has a washed out wake at lower speeds. I just move side to side in the boat depending on what side I need to clean up. It's a little ghetto but cheaper than a new boat.

Just use a regular topper from Leer or ARB. Can get nice ones of those for $2k. I camp in ours all the time with the kids. Plus you can get lazy and keep things in the back of the truck.
