Wakeboosters are in

I was able to pick p the full surf kit today with the booster, board and accessories at my dealer. It was the only one they had in stock.
 
We purchased everything individually and seemed to have saved some coin over purchasing it as a whole from the dealer. Just this week, the Slingshot board arrived. Kids are chomping at the bit on wanting to give it a try (me too)!
 
Any suggestions where to install the brackets that came with the Yamaha Surf Package to hold the ballast on a 2021 195S?

Caveat, I have the 4XA/B seadeck series on order from Jet Boat Pilot. I was thinking over by that cup holder thing given I want them on the edges.

Dealer installed my dog bones on the corner of the transom backrests. About where the A is on the port side and just to left (looking from the back) of the divot where the the light pole goes on non195's.
 
Why wouldn't you just rope through the cleats on the boat and the handles on the bag? Snug your rope down before bulging the bag, then when it's bulged, it'll hold just fine.
 
Just an FYI the wakeboosters are in stock. Just picked one up for 799. From what I was told they release them after the boat shows and that's all they make for the year.
Where did you get it for that price? I'm only finding them for much more

This was back in March in Minnesota when the dealers got them in. Pretty sure they run out quick. Had six or seven when I was there. Just the booster though. No board or ropes.
 
Have any of you running a 19ft seeing a marked improvement by using the wakebooster?

this is about all I can get using no booster with only passenger weight and seating arrangements. 10.2 mph gradual surf side turn.

You can check out boat test . com… they did a test on a 19’ FSH boat.

Must add weight. I think thats more important that the booster.
