Wake Picks

[BHog]

Well I am bored and I found a couple of pictures from our last real day at the lake. You know the all day events where you ride for a couple of hours, then sit and chill and drink a brew and then ride somemore. These pics were taken in lake October or early November. I have been out since then but not without a dry suit. Its cold now and these pics gave me a smile. I am only going to post a few because I dont feel like re sizing all of them. Anyways there a few wake pics too. I have 400 in the back, 450 in the ski locker and 400 pounds of pop products lead wieght evenly distributed every where.

just curious what length rope and what boat and speed do you run. Cool Pix.

last one

I think our rope is 75ft? and the speed is 22.5. Some of the pics were taken from on top of the tower so it make the wake look narrow

[BHog]

Is anyone still wakeboading? Its about 20 here today so looks like Im out till march

What boat do you have?

[BHog]

I have a 1999 super air. She gets the job done. I have benn looking a the 08 210 but I am going to have a hard time picthing that to the MRS. Honestly it would be nice to have a new boat but not sure I could shell out that much coin. My boat doesnt have all the bling, but I love the wake.

[rbalan]

I'm not crazy about any new boats or the bling factor; your boat is far better looking than anything new out there. Your boat throws a great wake, looks awesome, and (I'm guessing) has plenty of room. Hang on to that boat!

[BHog]

Well thanks for the compliment. I have about a 3-4 man crew when we go out. So more room is not an issue. I just think I am addicted to looking at new and used boats. Only thing that I dont care for on this boat is the tower. The new towers are reasonable but the labor to install is a little high. The newer style towers have different mounting points.

Its pretty easy to upgrade the tower. I put a new dimension my Super Sport last weekend and with two people it took about two hours. As for coving up the holes get some gator grip and make a step out of it. You only need to cover the rear holes. It will be nice to have a step there anyways to get boards off the rack or loading and unloading from a dock

I have to 2nd what bchesley said. Even if you don't want to put grip tape there, the holes will be very small and easy to fill with a simple gel repair kit. The white deck should be a non-issue with color matching. Installing a ND tower is easy, I pretty much did it by myself last year, just takes a little time and patience for measuring and remeasuring. This would be a "no-brainer" for me, and they should be running their special pricing right about now.
