    Now I have to worry about my phone, Ipod, and tablet to keep my boat rocking. Sometimes technology can be a PITA. One thing I LOVE on the Craz is the traditional (Analog) gauges.

    Totally agree i hope that they keep the gauges and the switches, I love the screens but nice to know you have some back-up if necessary.

    Pretty soon we'll have a page in this forum where, if you go out by yourself, another forum member can drive for you through your tablet while you surf. Don't worry, the autowake will adjust the wake for not having a driver present.

    I was wishing I had this tool this past weekend. My wife and 16y/o kept moving around the boat and I found myself more conscious of my efforts to adjust things to compensate. Which sucks for me because I'm the only driver that knows how to manage/compensate for this. When I'm boarding/surfing, i'm SOL. i get whatever ballast/speed/trim that i set up before i get in the water.
    I did think about this though, most people (i assume) already fill their ballast to near capacity with exception maybe of their mid/bow ballast, so side to side adjustments (which are critical) might be limited to trim tab adjustments alone, huh? for wakeboarding i don't fill everything 100% so i've got more options to increase or decrease weight on any given side, but for surfing i certainly fill the rears 100% so transferring weight port/starboard is not feasible. that only leaves wake plat and autosurf trim tab adjustments (which aren't easy or yield predictable results). I'd actually like an enhancement to my existing system to make surf tab adjustments more user friendly. not sure how they work on supra, but on moomba, you can only make adjustments in one direction then it drops to 0% deployed. i was playing w/this while my 10 y/o was surfing and it went from 100% to 0% and the wave totally washed out and he lost momentum. he said, "what the heck dad!!!???" lol.

    I have been wondering the same thing, most of us run with our ballast 100% for surfing. I would assume the system sacrifices some draft in order to maintain the optimum hull attitude, but that is just my assumption. Maybe the boats will be offered with larger bags that allow for some headroom to make adjustments without sacrificing draft. Then again most of us swap in larger bags anyway. We are likely in the minority though, I would guess the majority of owners just make due with the stock system. I know I have a few family members that are very envious of the size of my wave, but are extremely apprehensive of going beyond stock ballast.

    Good points guys. Another item to note is that I don't believe you're able to fill at surf speeds...At least I can't. I can drain, but can't fill. So once you're up to speed, how would it be able to fill the IBS if needed?

    I also agree that it would be great if there was a way to adjust the surf tabs up/down rather than just down. That way you can see how the wave is affected by going from 50% up to 75% without having to go down to 0% and starting back at 100%. Then I get ticked off when I accidently hit the button 1-too many times and it goes to 70%.
