    Uneven wake?

    I have a 84 2001. I am running it without any ballast right now. For some reason, the wake is uneven. The passenger side wake is really bad. It is low and "foamy" on the top with no real crest. The driver side wake is much better with a nice, tall, even wake. The passenger side wake gets better when you turn left but only while turning. Any ideas?

    How many passengers? Makes sense if you are the only one in the boat.

      from 2 people to 6 with people with gear, and full gas tank. We have tried arranging weight all diff ways but it does not solve the uneven wake.

        What direction does the prop spin in the boat? Is it the original motor?

          It is a RH prop. It has the original PCM 454 motor in it.

            the SN2001 are tiny and are VERY sensitive to left to right weight it must be perfect. passengers cant just sit there. they will have to move around to get the balance right, remember "the white side is the light side" have your passengers (or sacs) move slowely over towards the white side until it matches the other wake.

              Thank you "stangkillass" thats a good point with the 2001's. I learned that pretty quick after I got my 2001. I have had everybody go to that side where the boat is leaning in the water alot and it still seemd to make little to no difference. Could it be the rudder is at a tilt or the prop or somthing?
