That's awesome Jimmy, I'm liking the boat. If you ever bring it down to CS or Conroe I'll have to come out and ride behind it.
Looks like it would throw a pretty good wake without ballast since it sits lower in the water plus the weight of the engine. The A&M Wakeboard Team/Club boat is an 81 Ski Nautique with a 351w and a few hundred pounds of ballast. It's a small boat but once you put a bunch of people in it you really don't need ballast or else the wake is ridiculously huge.
