    Surf Wave Settings - The Visual

    I think Charles is going to post a more in depth wave report changing the NSS settings from behind his 230, but below are two waves with the following settings behind my G23:

    All ballasts filled
    200 lbs of lead in bow nose
    250 lbs of lead under port observer seat
    150 lbs of lead mid section starboard behind drivers seat
    150 lbs of lead mid section port behind observer seat
    Speed 11.5 MPH
    Crew me as driver and 10 lb dachshund

    Picture One - NCRS 5 NSS 0 - A bit overcurl as the wave tappers off on the back end/ wake needed to be cleaned up somewhat

    Picture Two - NCRS 4 NSS 1 - Changing both by only one increment really cleaned up the wave and stopped the overcurl of the wave on the back end​

    I'm not seeing the pictures. Very interested in this topic though. Also is it a typo NCRS at 0, then NCRS at 4. NSS at 5 ,then NSS at 1. This is not one increment of change. I assume that you went from 0 to 1 on NSS and from 5 to 4 on NCRS?

            I can see my pictures I posted just fine. Don't know why the rest of the forum members can't see them . I'm clueless as to why.

                I uploaded them and can see them fine. Maybe Jeff can chime in as to why no one else can see the pictures I posted
