New Malibu Surfgate System

I know on the centurion they are not on the sides, but cool if they are on the MB. Seems for a surf boat you would want them in the corners as much as possible.

where do you think they are on the Centurion?

Ragboy so if they are not on the sides where do you think the 2 pur vert ballast tanks are located

Sweet, now even easier to totally f**** up the entire lake, instead of just one side.
Wakesurfing = rollerbalding, razor scootering, bodysurfing.....get over it people, or just go tubing like you used to.

The facebook page now says 7/13 is the official launch date. EPIC FAIL.

But I am sure glad I read this thread to find out about Instafill. I think it has serious potential. Maybe the surfgate really is Instafill? Then I would feel like I really got played...but in sort of a good way

This is just a guess, but I think the dates might be release dates for the next teaser video...not an ever-changing full release date for the product.

Slalom skiing is the only way to leave the lake nice and calm. You might as well sell your boat and get on with life...

We ride on a small lake, if there are a couple wakeboats who somewhat know how to drive we can still get good water. Throw one wakesurfer on the lake and the whole thing is bumped out in 10 minutes. Tottal disrespect, no better/worse than getting 'snaked' when real surfing.

On a good note I have heard there is legislation being proposed with mandatory rope lengths due to the dangers of riding too close to the boat. Makes sense to me.

I'm sure there are more injuries related to wakeboarding, skiing, and tubing than surfing. If somebody is an idiot to surf behind an outboard or sterndrive AND get injured or killed...blame the boat operator. What state are you referring to when you say "legislation" because it's not federal I'm sure.

If this makes sense to you, you dont have any idea what you are talking about.

Maybe I spoke/typed unclearly. I meant on the centurions I have seen, the "quickfill" was not all the way on the sides, more in the middle. I am sure it still works very well, but having quickfill ballast like that all the way in the corner seems like it would be much better for wakesurfing. If all things were equal between 2 boats, and one's tanks were more in the middle, and the other on the outside, I would think I would want the ones with the outside tanks, that is all I was saying. Then again, if the demo showed the best wake from the ones in the inside, who would care, right?

I do try to keep up on all of it, but honestly, so many boats and stuff going on, stuff can slip through the cracks.

Seriously, what are you talking about. The only thing towards the middle of my 244 is the engine/gas tank/center ballast. Have you actually lifted up the engine compartment and taken a look? Here, I will post Kevin's pick of an Enzo hull again. Please take a look at where the quick fill tanks are (the two things on both sides of the engine) and let me know how much farther to the side they are suppose to be.
