Went out surfing yesterday for the second time and we couldn't resist tossing the rope in. Nothing fancy, but a lot of fun. The last one is my buddy screwing around. The pics of him falling right after that are a riot.

'97 Prostar 205 with about 900 pounds in a rear couch, 600 in the bow, and another 300 or so on the port side of the engine. Those are all pretty rough guesses, because the ratings on the sacs are seriously exaggerated (the laws of physics say that a 20x20x50 sac can only hold 722 pounds of water, not the 750+ that Fly High claims). Also had about 350 in people on the gunwale, 100 sitting on the couch and 100, on the engine cover (boat bun doesn't add much, but every little bit helps).

Heh....yeah, he's working out pretty hard to make that vest a little more proportional.

No road trip. Lake Austin is always cool because the water that feeds it flows from the bottom of Lake Travis. With all the rain lately, they've been letting out a lot of water. Current water temps are in the 50's.

Sick man. I have a '92 prostar 205 and we've got it throwin out a decent surf wake. Your hull might be different but I've found I don't need much weight in the bow at all. i.e. <200lbs. good to see another prostar keepin it real.
