    Thanks Drew,
    Will get out and have a play again in a couple of weeks, see how it goes.
    We have the manual flow surf so will see what speed is good for the wave (ballast full) then deploy the tab and see what that does. I presume the wakeplate is all the way up at these low speeds?
    Only concern will be some instructions to the wife, whom is the driver, about not swamping the boat!

    Bruce, the flow and wake plate need to be played with to get the wave where you want / like it. The tab on OPPOSITE side you are surfing goes down. With stock ballast I think I read to try the 1st position, then as you add more weight move the tab down. The wake plate you will have to play with. All the way makes a taller wave but shortens it. Moving plate down lengthen's wave but can take away push and size (height)

    I think I got it right...this is how I have learned from reading Looking forward to what you come up with. I can't wait for spring / summer so I can go through exactly what you are.

    Jordan made the first on her Mac, the second was done by a friend of ours. I just drive & make payments.

    Great info, just asked my 14 yo daughter if she was willing to become a family video specialist and edit and create videos from summer footage and she actually got excited. Problem solved!

    The videos are awesome. I've used Movie Maker that is free on Windows and it does a decent job for a clueless amateur like me. The grand parents like it cause they can see the kids.

    Thanks for your comments CFD3Captain, will be out there soon having a play for sure, thanks for the tip on the wakeplate position and its effect.
    Will load all ballast, drop the surf tab and do some speed tests, probably start at 10mph and go up thru to 12mph.
    Cheers BruceR
