Need help choosing ballast setup - 2004 226

[benjamin_rohrs]

Looking to spend around $500 for now just to get a half decent wave for the summer. Going to pull the tanks out and plum in fat-sacs, but that will have to wait till next summer. Best options look like getting 2 400lb bags for each side in the back, or one 750lb bag for the surf side. Both come in at the around price with a pump included. I also have around 180lbs of lead ballast laying around I can toss in. Getting the 750 is tempting as there won't be any exposed fat-sacs, only 1 bag to pump up, and I can keep it to be plumbed in next year. Just wondering if weighting it evenly will make a better/worse wave than listing.

Wave in attached picture is stock ballast (belly tank empty) + mission delta.
