226 Ballest help

[Lvnspeed]

I have a 2003 226LE (this means I dont have any stock ballast) also running stock prop. I would like to be able to produce a good clean long wave that I dont need to have extra people in the boat to produce. I bought a complete kit for Wake Makers (not happy with them at all) 2)750 in the rear on each side and a 350 in the center locker 3 ballest pup pumps. If I fill eveything up the wake is soft mushy and very short. neither side seems very good. Its surfable but but nice at all. Also is there a rope for wake surfing? I have been using a rope that we cut up but it seems too short for the 226, How long shoul;d the rope be? What am I doing worng?

Lvnspeed,

I have been trying to get my wake right for a while now. I am running an 1100 lb sac in the starboard locker on top of the hard tank probably around 850-900 w/ stock tank or you should be able to squeeze all 1100 w/o stock tank in your way), stock belly (around 500) and a 400 lb sac on the front seat. We surf goofy and usually it's my Wife, our young kids and myself. We ride between 10.8 and 11.2 mph. Just trying to get a little longer now. I'll try to post pics when we get home. We're actually heading home from the lake now. Hope this helps. 226 info is hard to come by.
