And that's really what all the talk is about, a boat reaching max potential. Now if you had 14 adults in a boat, and it still needed 1000 more pounds, then that would be an issue, imo. Plus, most people can't ride that great anyway, including myself, sorry.. truth hurts.
I am tracking Knox! Makes sense. Lead is very handy. Easy to move. Instant results. On the fly.

I personally hold the opinion that the crappier you are as a surfer—the more a big powerful wave benefits you. Roll into a milder shape, but keep the power. Makes surfing as a newbie easier.

There is literally no scenario in my surfing life where a less-powerful-than-max wave makes sense. Maybe on a little kid....but no adult.
