I am new to the whole wakeboard boat thing I have been in powerboats my whole life but have a family and decided to go with a 2008 220 SAN. Im pretty much a beginner boarder but i can go w2w off of the port side wake but not the starboard side and, i am regular footed. My problem is that I cant get my starboard side of my wake to stop washing so bad. The port side is awesome but starboard is horrible. Someone help.

You should be able to get it to stop washing so bad by adjusting your (can't remember what it's called) ski/wakeboard controls. -
I have adjusted the hydrogate and pulled it all the way back and forward and everywhere between. I even started filling the starboard side ballast all the way full and leaving the portside only half full.Comment

Oh yeah, HYDROGATE! Is yours working correctly? with only the stock ballasts filled, I was able to get mine working.Originally posted by uwhusky View PostComment

Try full starboard balast and zero port and see what happens. If that does not help, then you have something funky going on with your hull, or you have other weight on the port side that is more than your starboard ballast tank. Prop can affect wake, but not that much.Originally posted by Chasennky View Post
Oh yeah, and the fact that you just started and can already go WTW has pissed me off.Now

add more weight to the side that is washing out - little by little until it cleans up. Start with filling all 3 ballast tanks full - hydrogate pulled back, driver and 1 passenger only. Start at 22-23 mph. Then when u have both sides clean, then u can start slowing the boat down until u see the wake starting to wash a little bit - then u know ur going too slow - so speed up a tad(1 click at a time) till its perfect. Do everything little by little. Thats how youll get your wake dialed. Takes a little bit of time but youll get it.
Its easiest & best to go out there with 1 other person only and some weight that you can move around easily from left to right. AND START FAST, NOT SLOW - with your speed.Migs
