For sure! I was gonna take pics of the new lead location, but I got popped for a trip.
I added the 600# midship to try and be able to increase the surf speed, and it worked. The amount of push is absurd. Our back legs were toast.
Enzos, factory front ballast. 200# of lead under the leg of each bag under the flip up seats. (Helps drain the legs too)
100# next to the batteries, 100# behind the drivers seat.
We were surfing around 11.7-11.9, with the surf plate at 65, smart plate at 0. 100% ballast all around. I don’t use autowake but I have found that 10.5 pitch and -4.5 roll seems to be the happy spot. I just pull it up when we start and see if we’re close to the numbers and adjust from there.
That day we had my wife driving (120#) and two 200ish# guys on the port side when someone was riding. Nice thing about that lead was it really didn’t matter where anyone sat, the wave didn’t change by much and we messed around for a while.
We all only surf regular, so I really don’t have any goofy numbers.
