Just curious how these boats handle on busy channels w heavy wake. Going from Chaparral Xtreme 244 - trim tabs make it doable, but can still be crazy out there.

Throw a little ballast in a wake boat helps.

Our Makai handles big waves pretty good IMO especially compared to my old 21ft DD. Little bow weight takes the bounce right out of it.

any super large cruiser wave you're gonna have to slow or dodge haha.
