Got a new Fat sac for Christmas

19ft Yamaha Ar190. 650lb ballast on rear 120lbs of sand on surf side. 120lbs of sand in the bow. 10.7 mph. and 5 people aboard (About 550-600lbs) spread throughout.

Rider 190lbs plus wet suit, on a slingshot coaster.

Note, I had to step up to the bow on take off to get the boat up to 10.7.

I also have a home made wake booster, but the boat wont get up to speed with it.

Nice to see that Santa was good to you! Posts like this make me want to load up on wake surfing gear and try this next summer.
