Yeah, you need to come out for a ride when I get it back together.

Sounds like a plan, labor day weekend is looking open

I'm also going to make another set of plates that are a little smaller to see how that changes things.

I was told by the owner of Wakeland, that bigger is not always better. At least for my hull.

Did not get into a detailed engineering of why, but these are the guys that know all the SC hulls.

Cool, I'm waiting for The Boss to decide what she wants to do for Labor Day weekend.

Replaced the hinges with far beefier stainless hinges.

Very impressive! Keep us updated!

I went from the mission delta to the Wakeland 2.0 surf system. I found decreasing my bow weight and moving the 400#’s of lead I mid-ship to the front of the rear bags greatly improved the push. We can now ride way back on the wave without any trouble.

Yeah the tab really pushes the bow down. Definitely going to move some weight aft.

Got the boat back in the water today. I moved all the lead I had in the bow to the floor in front of the rear seat on the surf side. I also initially only filled the bow ballast halfway. Nose was way too high, needed more speed and wakeplate full down.

I filled the bow ballast the rest of the way, and really seemed to make a powerful wave. The proof is in the surfing, but I was the only one in the boat, so surf test will have to wait.
