ordering new boat, autowake or G6 pumps
I'm ordering a new Craz. Trying to keep the price in line, would you order the boat with Autowake or the 6 pump ballast system? Both are about the same price of around $1,200.
I see pros and cons about autowake. But seems like cool technology. 6 pumps cuts fill time in half.ADM

Autowake... didn't think I'd like it, but I do. I really don't care about fill time. That's just time to relax and drink a beer or something. These boats are crazy fast compared to my old '06 or using a pump to fill bags individually back in the day. Lol

I honestly wouldn't skimp on either. I mean, you're getting a brand new wakeboat and both are going to seriously add to the overall experience at a fraction of the price of the whole package.

Autowake for sure. Pumps optional. The boat comes plumbed for the dual pumps so you can add for same or even cheaper cost later if it bugs you. Don’t know how easy it would be to add autowake.

When I ordered my boat I was faced with the same choices and I went with both on the fact that its an option and when I decided to sell my boat and upgrade at some the buyer will possibly look for, but if it was do or don’t I would AutoWake without a doubt for bang for your buck. you adding the pumps later is a do it yourself which down the road you or the next guy can add. IMO

Both. Extra 1,200 on a new boat @ 75-80k? Not too major.
When used, both will be really appreciated.
You will wish you had them if you do not buy.
