For an basic setup buy some used 750lbs(or new) or 1100lbs from wakemakers and 1-3 tsunami pumps, maybe $500ish?

The more pumps the faster you are surfing. Search the forum foe where to put the weight, but I'd think you'd want 1100 in the rear, your center ballast full and some weight in the bow(throw a 750 bag on the seats)..

If you decide to upgrade to something easier you can reuse the bags and install reversible pumps. My boat had no ballast system, I upgraded over the winter from the tsunami pumps to a reversible pump system(4 of them). The install was pretty easy and ran around $2500ish for everything, pumps, hoses, fitting, switches, etc, etc...
