our X1 (same hull as a 2001 xstar) throws an exceptional port wave with just stock center and port rear ballast, with about 3 passengers. But drop the rubrail in the water with 7 passengers on that side and you will be amazed with the wake! We recently also surfed the starboard side for the first time, and although we expected the wave to be washed out it was just as clean and large as the port side, with again just stock ballast and 3 passengers. The only thing that was difficult was getting everybody on the starboard side due to the lack of seating.
