Ballast Question for a Supra SSV

bigdeal 04-15-2005, 9:07 AM

Need some help. I'm considering purchasing a 2000 Supra Santera (same hull as the current SSV) that does not have any ballast installed.

I need some feedback from you Supra owners on how best to setup ballast in this boat to generate the best wake. I'll construct the entire system, so just hit me with suggestions on weighting (i.e. how much weight, and where it should be placed).

Thanks in advance for the feedback.

I have an 04'SSV and I run Factory Ballast and the wake is great! 1 big sac in floor up front and one in each rear storage.

contact your local supra dealer and get some Gravity Games Bags. Do you have a walktrhough or a play pen?

Mike,

Gravity Games ballast is a must. Run the front bag full, and the rears half to three quarters depending on how many people you have in the boat. Although the Mobius-V and the SSV have different hulls, they run the same weight configurations for an optimal wake.

2000 Mobius-V with Gravity Games Ballast.
