I believe these people http://www.gethighsports.net will make a custom bag to your size.

Fluid concepts has a 80"x19", 1000 lb sack. www.fluidconcepts.net

Here is what they say about it...

1000 lb. ski locker bag (19? X 80?) Fits Malibu, Supra, Moomba boats or others with a large ski locker area. ? 525 lb. mid-size ski locker bag (16? X 72?) Fits Nautique and Mastercraft boats or others with a smaller ski locker area.

Those sacs won't wrap around things very easily.

I have an X-star and the KGB goes to the nose, What are you wrapping to, The ski locker is a stright line to the bow. If you need more weight in the bow, I put 2 side sacs under the 2 frt. seats, I have 2-600# stern 2-250# bow and a 500# KGB in the keel. That's the "stuff" wake.

Thanks guys....
I have a 2000 X, so I put a self-primer pump in to hit two full sizers in the back and a single bag wrapped up front. It's a side sac, and it forms/works pretty good. (I did put a vent/overfill in to prevent blowout!) If I put another sac up there, it involves another valve/hose/vent...which I don't want to get into. Would like to add a bit more weight with a bigger bag.
shoobies, Why don't you think the bags would wrap????

The puncutre isn't good for the bag and it slides around. so it doesn't stay in that position very good. It might work for you, but it didn't for me. But, I know the puncture and continuous pressuer on the bag isn't good for it.
