Well i took my 04 outback out tursday for some wakesurf fun. But i must say i could not get a good wake to save my life. I had 500 in the front 450 on the side and 600 in the back and still no wakesurf wake. Any help swould be great. Had the PP set starting at 11.5 and worked it all the way down to 8.8 and nothing.

"I put surfable in quotes above because a very good wakesurfer actually can surf behind a boat with no ballast, with a wake no higher than his ankles. "

ED not if you weigh 285 lbs. :) Trust me on this one LOL

In my Outback I run 750 under the rear seat, 450 down the side of the motor, and 300 in the bow. It throws a nice surf wake.
