A boat is only rated to carry so much weight. Be it from water,lead or people.
It would not be wise to exceed this rating.
This argument is similar to buying a performance car and then modding it to add horsepower/Torque.
It’s human nature to modify and want more.

I don’t believe it’s really escalated. We are discussing how it can possibly be that 2 different 25’ boats that have a 1200# weight difference whilst surfing could possible have a noticeable wave difference.
A. It must be that the lighter of the 2 has a crappy hull and surf system that needs to be revisited.
B. Or, maybe is it because the heavier one, well, is a lot heavier? Like 1200# worth.
Folks have asserted A. I think it’s primarily B.

I tried surfing my foil a couple times. And I realized I had "too much ballast"!!! And also having the 30" mast wasn't great and I need to try surfing the foil with the 20" mast instead. We just don't spend a lot of time on the foil. It's usually an afterthought if we have "extra" time after ski, wakeboard, surf. Originally Posted by dakota4ce

We have a limited amount of calm water, so maybe the foil can provide some fun after the lake gets chopped up a little bit. Originally Posted by trayson
