First of all this boat is a direct drive. We have a manual wedge and the way i have been weighing it is taking out back seat and putting a plastic container that holds about 400 lbs. I put one sac on each side of the engine that weigh about 300 each. & the wedge is down of course, which supposedly adds 1000 lbs. Last summer i was also putting a tube in the bow which i would fill with about 300 lbs. My line is 65 ft long. And i have been riding at prob. about 22.5 mph. dunno exactly b/c the speed gage is broken. Should I throw way more weight towards the front somehow? I am thinking on going out to 70. I much rather ride normally off a wakeboard boat, but no one has been going out this season yet. When i ride off v-drives or real wakeboard boats i ride from 70-75ft. Anyhow any suggestions would be helpful, thanx guys
