An 08' b52 is my primary wake maker(don't currently own). Probably one of the best all around wake machines of the time before major focus on surfing came into play. We currently run the following in weight:
Wakeboard
Full factory ballast(2 hard tanks on port and starboard rear to mid ship)
~900 lbs lead mid ship under seats
400 lb sack on floor mid ship, all the way to the the back
750 lb sack in the bow along with about 150 lbs of lead under the seats in bow
Surf
Take the same weight as above , empty one side of factory tanks, move all mid ship lead to one side and drain sack in bow to ~3/4 capacity.
These setups work well for up to 4 people. Any more people and your taking on a ton of water while surfing or taking way too long to get on plane while boarding.
