I’ve searched a bit but can anyone tell me how much weight the wakemakers kit adds? Referring to the rear bag replacement in the makai. I have 650 lbs of lead and it’s just not quite enough on the light days when it’s just the wife and kids. Throw a couple more adults in the mix and I can ride all day on the board.

I’m no pro by any means but I’d like it a bit more effortless to surf when I get 15 minutes between all the kids…lol. We have 4 so most days I captain. If everything is set up just right with the weight I do have I can drop the rope and ride but I have to really work at it. Swap the 4 kids with 4 adults and I can ride effortlessly. With rough math, I figure the difference in weight with 5 adults in the boat vs 1 adult and my 4 kids is roughly 600 lbs.

Does the wakemakers kit get me there? I’m hesitant to add another 500-600 lbs of lead I have to ride with 100% of the time.
