Boat Wake

I have a 2003 Sei 180 Larson (18ft). I put a MT1 monster tower on it a year ago. A new boat isn't in the budget so thats out of the option. I need a bigger wake on the boat. I can put up to 1200lbs in the boat, it has a 200hp mercury in it and i have a stock prop on it. What are my options to getting a bigger wake?

Put the majority of it in the front and use the trim to clean the wake up

Will a different prop make a difference at all?

Prop won't help your wake, but will help handle the extra weight better if you you load the boat

Cheapest easiest method is put put 8 or 9 150 pd or more people in it thats what we do.

I have a 5 blade on mine and it helps ALOT with the hole shot when we have the boat full of people or ballast.

As long as the girl to guy ratio is in your favor, then you can sacrifice a little weight

3 girls to 1 guy is ideal usually!
