Anyone know what the individual capacity is of the internal ballast? I know all three tanks together is 1100 lbs. I can't find any info on what the L/R aft tanks are or the ski locker bag capacities are.
 
Ski locker is 800 lbs, and each side is 150 lbs.
Thanks... I would have expected the rear tanks to be a bit more. Quick math means about 18 gallons each rear tank and 96 gallons in the ski locker. I didn't think that the bag in the ski locker looked that big.
 
No need for the pictures, I can see them in my boat. I apparently thought that 96 gallons would be bigger than that. I'm taking it out tomorrow and will pay more attention to how big it is. That is almost double the size of the gas tank.

For the rear tanks, I can't really tell how high they go or how far back they go, so never really had a preconceived idea about how big (or small) they were.
