Well, it worked. Wakebooster, plus 750lb bag in the locker, and a 350lb sack on the lower swim deck, slid over to the wave side. Two adults and two teenagers in the boat and everyone was able to go ropeless no problem. It was everyone's 2nd time ever, and everyone got up and rode ropeless on rights and lefts. FOr whatever reason, the rights had a slightly better wave face. We found the best wake at about 10 mph and 6000 rpms. Much better fuel economy than yesterday and far superior wake. Moving the wakebooster to each side was simple enough. Took the wakebooster off and left same ballast setup and wakeboarding was also great. Stoked.
