Michael, you dont need a badass boat to go big. Just make sure you edge properly, get the speed and stand tall at the wake. Hold the handle low and this will help with your pop. Make sure you also trim your motor up as this will sink the back of your boat a little and make your wake a little better.. we have the same motor in our boat and we have lots of fun. Im not saying the wake is as big as some of the wakeboats on this sight but its plenty to still have lots of fun on. If you do put the 500lbs in and depending on how many people are in the boat, you might want to reprop. I went to a 4 blade 18 pitch prop and that made all the difference with having more weight in the boat.
