If it is true subfloor ballast, I believe they would have to split the boat at the rubrail and put it in under the top cap. Just a guess, I havent been to the factory to see how they make the boats.
On a side note, does Moomba have any boats with true subfloor ballast? The Max and Kaiyen that I walked through at the dealer I could lift seats or bins and see the ballast bags. I havent had the pleasure of seeing a Supra in person, but my understanding is they have true subfloor ballast. I have been on G and GS nautique and that is what I think of with subfloor ballast. When you open any compartments or seats the there is no visible ballast bags.

I think the Supra and moomba newer sub floor ballast are bags only.
Previous ballast was a combo of subfloor hard tanks and plug and play locker bags.

Are all Supra models true subfloor ballast? By true subfloor I mean you cannot see any abgs when you open the compartments or seats. Unfortunately, I have never been able to get in and crawl around one.
Both the Max and Kaiyen I was in I could see the bags when I opened the rear compartments. I dont understand how that is considered subfloor. Can anyone clarify this?

That is what subfloor means in my mind. There is a dealer in Akron, Ohio near my in-laws, that carries Nautique and Moomba. When I look in the rear compartments of a G23 and a Max, the Max has deeper rear compartments (this is in the showroom). But, when you are out on the lake and fill the ballast the entire G23 rear compartment is still available with ballast full, whereas the Max compartment looses a lot of space as the bags fill with ballast.
Unfortunately, I have not seen a Supra at any of the boat shows and there are no dealers near me. It is my understanding from this thread that the Supra is like the G23 where the ballast is all subfloor not just hidden by trays. But, I look forward to the day I can crawl around the inside of one and check it out. They have great reviews so I am sure they are awesome vessels.
