    Wake Makers Ballast Delete Kit

    I have an 04 SANTE that I am taking the rear ballast tanks out and want to replace them with bags. I canÂ’t get a hold of WakeMakers to see which bag will work for my boat, and it looks like the only specific one they have is the buddy bags where the tanks stay in place. Any help? I guess it could be as simple as measure my opening and buy a bag to fit, then get the hoses to replace. Thoughts?

    IMO, 750’s are the most common rear locker sacs. WM makes universal sacs that offer different dimensions with the same weight. The best thing to do is measure your area and pick according. I went with their 910’s 45x20x25 and they fit nicely in my 98’ SS. I went with the bigger sac for surfing purposes when I don’t have a full boat passenger wise. I figured it would give me the option if I need more weight. For wake boarding I fill them up a little over half way. On another note, I’m hearing a lot of people saying they have trouble getting ahold of Wakemakers, I had a pump impeller go out and I called to confirm replacement part and I had them on the phone in under 5 mins. I also sent an email and got a response back within an hour. I’ve had nothing but good customer service and purchasing experiences from Wakemakers.

      We did this conversion on our old boat and replaced the rear tanks with 1100 bags. Also did an 1100 bag under the front seats piggy backed over the center tank. It made a giant, steep, rock hard wake.

        How did the boat handle that much weight?
