    255X Wake

    How does a current either going with or against the boats displacement affect a surf wave?

    255X Wake

    I know that your target speed doesn't always align with your actual speed, but I'm unsure how currents affect this.

    255X Wake

    I understand, Yamaha's are not known for being great surfboats because they're not surf boats. They're runabouts that you can surf behind, a great all around boat. I've spent a considerable amount of time surfing behind all of Yamaha's X-Series boats over the years, and it it seems from your...

    255X Wake

    This sounds like a lot of weight and setup time. Do you have a picture of the wave this produces?

    255X Wake

    I would try and dial down the middle bag to 20-25% depending on rider. Less for larger riders and more for smaller...etc. Also, what speed are you running? I would try and get the actual to around 10.5 mph. Also, there an option to over fill the ballast. Once full, go into the ballast setting...

    Boat 2023 Yamaha 255XD Sapphire- Michigan

    Once the marine mat flooring is down, it breaks up the blue on this inside quite a bit. Looks good. Yeah I would argue that Yamaha isn't cheaper quality. People put them in that category because they're more value for you money.

    When is everyone's first trip? We're trying to head to Powell over spring break. But winter seems to be lingering on. Might be to cold.

    Boat 2023 Yamaha 255XD Sapphire- Michigan

    What is a "budget wake boat"? A 2020 212X is a significantly different boat than a 222XD. You speak as if the price increase didn't come with added features as well.

    255X Wake

    @Khalid the more weight you put on the swim deck the more your going to have to ballast the front. I've found the best wave is around 10-11, so you're good on speed.

    255X Wake

    Here's my surf wave. I do 100% rear ballast port and starboard, 25% front. And I use one of the 200 lb Fat Sac from Yamaha's 19' ballast kit on the side of the rider. I set the speed to around 11-12 and actual is around 10. I can drop the rope every time no problem!
