1999 Malibu Wakesetter 1500 lbs of ballast 75 ft 19.5 mph 3 years That said...I'm shocked at how fast most people go. Maybe I'll try bumping up my speed to see how things feel, but 19.5mph seems like a good speed for me. Weird.

Drew--maybe your speedo or perfect pass or not calibrated properly. Maybe your going faster than you think. Use a GPS hand held and calibrate your speedo and perfect pass.

Well, I guess that's possible. I just had it installed though this spring. Plus, I don't have a handheld GPS. Maybe I can track one down.

Yea i would guess your going faster than 19.5 if you have a clean wake at 75ft with 1500lbs.
