I have about 700 lbs in the bow, which makes the wake decent size then you have to start adding weight to the back to get a little steepnees to it and a little harder.
I have a 18 ft bayliner capri with a 4.3l 190hp merc. two fatbuddy sacs in back one gethigh sports sac in front(all on autoballast) and a 4 blade 18 pitch prop gets up on plane fairly quick. on thing to remember though with all the extra weight is that you wont be making very tight turns you will have to go nice and wide, after a while you get a feel for it.
btw I also have monster tower, perfect pass, mako racks and monster mirror!
