Whipping a dead horse?

I guess I just want to here that it will happen...

On my own thread. 

99 elite dd, 

Like wakeboarding but it's nice to just rest on a surfboard. 

Boats stock. I'm looking for options to get a wave that's "good enough" and not 3 inches from teak. And don't want to sink it to the rub rails.

Thanks.

Bow ballast bag, 750 ballast bags in both rear lockers and a suck gate on the side should do it.

Okay,  thanks. But as it's a direct drive theres only 1 rear "trunk" that's 72 l, 12 h, 16 w. 

Would be nice to use that space and no external bags on seats floor and get that kinda weight .

Is there a bench seat at the back you can put a ballast bag under? You will also need a bow sac and the suck gate is a must.

Just ordered the suck gate, and the back seat has part of the ell shaped fuel tank under it, 

As far as the front theres no locker or it looks as though when the previous owner redid flooring it was covered..but those lockers aren't that big anyway,  so I guess I'll have to find a bag that just hangs out on the floor right there. 

How much weight in front?

Probably a few hundred pounds in the bow. Invite a few friends out and move them around until the wake cleans up. Start at around 10mph

Okay. 

Wonder if 1 800 or hopefully 1000 plus lb bag would work? I know the more the better...just having a hard time finding one 72 inches long...

Actually I kinds re measured and I could fit something 78 long and 20 round....
