Autowake add on?

[Surgical_ass]

Just wondering if auto wake is something that can be added on later to the new boats? Assuming that it's just a plug in and program type of thing?

I'd love to know this answer too.

I recall there being a thread on the benefits of autowake, maybe 2 yrs ago or so, one thing I noted was some people mentioning they were turning it off. AW will empty ballast in order to achieve a wake shape so to speak, and fills/empties ballast depending on weight distribution(passengers, gear, etc). SOme did not like the idea of loosing weight and therefore overall displacement. Not sure if AW is different now. I do continue to have reservations about loosing displacement to achieve a particular wave amplitude or shape. I can shape the wave amp and length by moving people around or using the wakeplate and surf tabs and changing speed without affecting displacement. I obv do not have AW in my boat now so I'm not speaking from experience but rather from what I remember from other threads, and from simple deduction., and I don't feel like I am missing out on anything. The only thing I wish I had was a digital modern touchscreen to quickly adjust the plate/tab settings easily and quickly. As it is now the process of navigating my screen to make adustments is very cumbersome.

Autowake will adjust ballast to achieve pitch and roll.

However once you understand it, you can max your ballast and move your Crew or lead in the static mode and hit your pitch and roll dynamically.

It’s really awesome.

This thread died without the original question being answered. I have the G6 ballast system on my 2020 Mojo but not autowake. Is adding Autowake a simple software upgrade or is there a little more involved in adding this to my boat?

don't know the answer but i'm sure a phone call to your dealer would answer it.

No, It can't readily be added after the fact. It is PDM's, sensors, the inclinometer, amplitude tube and other various components that make it all run. Anything is possible with money, but it wouldn't be feasible.

I added it to my Craz, I would ask your dealer, it's all plug and play..

I really like the idea of the “Go Home” feature available with the MY21 boats. I am wondering if it would work for wakeboarding to level the boat or would it be constantly trying to correct the list that the rider creates on the boat when that are edging hard outside the wake? Has anybody tried using this feature for wakeboarding?

Autowake works really well for wakeboarding as is no real need to use the tabs to level it does it with ballast
