Weighting for 1990 ski nautique

We currently remove the back seat and put 2 32 gallon drums on their sides which adds about 500 lbs. The wake still isn't quite right. We want to add more weight but don't want to take up alot of space. Is there anything that will fit up under the front seat? and the cheaper the better. Would it be better to lay the drums next to the motor box or keep them in the rear?

I would personally replace the drums with fat sacs, since it would fit the layout of the boat better (and they're fun to sit on, haha). If that is not an option (or even if it is) I would consider getting lead bars. They are relatively cheap and they have the highest weight/size ratio of any kind of ballast and they fit nicely in small places. I would deffinately put some weight on the sides as well as in the back.
