What's up? Im new here and wondering whats the best way to weight the 220? I ride behind a VLX w/ 4K at 85ft at 25MPH and am an advanced rider( just putting that out there to give you an idea of what kind of wake im looking for. Not to sound arrogant. :grin: ), what is the best way to weight the boat for this kind of riding? The boat is Re-Propped and I have tried various different ways to weight it and seems to just not take weight well. The boat is a friends and I know the beam is only 8ft and I believe that is the reason for the rooster tail destroying the wake when we weight it. I have tried 1k up front 300's in the rear and a 750 in the walkway. Then same set up w/o the 750 in the walkway. It always is terrible. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks a lot!

RE: Weighting an 07 220...
you should try having just 1000lbs in the bow, and about 800lbs total in the rear. then just add people, or put that 750 on the floor filled about 3/4's. sounds like too much up front. -

I figured more weight up front BC of the wake curling and lipping too much in the rear with any rear weight over stock. We even tried just the 300's rear and 1k up front w/ stock ballast empty and the same thing. Tried moving everyone and putting a few bumbells in the middle to move around could never get it right.Comment

The 220 we ride behind We have stock ballast and a 750 in the walk way and the wake is clean. A few people in the boat. The 220 is very stubborn to weight.Comment
