What year boat and length you are trying to set up ? Definitely talk to Jerry @jcyamaharider with Gantlin Products. He has helped so many people get their yamaha boats set up for surfing. Either message him on the board or his contact info is on his website.What are y’all using for ballast? Looking for cheap ways to make a good surfing wave.
I think we have a used 19ft transom bag available for sale if your interested.2014 AR192
LOVE IT!!!!!! Winner!!!! Faster fill faster drain!!!!You want real low budget?
Get some rubbermaid roughneck storage bins. Fill with water and place on swim deck. I can usually fill them half way from the lake an lift them up then fill the rest with a bucket. Three or four bins makes a noticeable difference.
Our friend Mark did that with his yamaha about 11 years ago. They started with tubs and moved on to ballast bags. Then he hooked us on surfing and the rest was history. Gantlin Products got started not long after. Just a couple of guys with dreams of making a better wave. Can't believe it's been that long already.You want real low budget?
