If the water didn’t do it the bachelorette party next is certainly did ?? Both myself and my father in law got a earful from wives. (totally worth it)
Yup pretty common to get water in the bilge. Many think it comes in around the seams of the hull when you get the swimdeck submerged. Others think it's around the tray. Either way, yes, you want the bilge on, and it can keep up fine.At my buddies lake house for our last trip before the baby comes next month. The fatsac has been a game changer. We can both surf ropeless all day long without issue. Pocket seems plenty big enough. Water is making it's way in somewhere now the ass end is under water. Oh well. Bulge will run for 10 seconds every 15 mins or so of surfing. Not a big deal. And when we're done I just run the bilge for a few once it's level. My goal this trip is to get wake to wake jumps down. Getting closer!

My tray has been sealed, so fortunately not that. Cupholder I've sealed as well. My only guess would be the seams like you mentioned or maybe the radio.Yup pretty common to get water in the bilge.

I love that you pushing the limits of the daylight. When it's so nice out, it's hard to stop. Till a LEO tells us. HA!
Ah, what is the phrase… pics, or it didn’t happen!
