Tige 21i Wake ?'s

Stephan · Guest

Hey I'm going on a houseboat trip with some folks who have a 2003 Tige 21i. Does this boat have a decent wake? Does it need ballast or does it stack up well with just the TAPS? Let me know ASAP, cuz I'm heading to the lake house and would need to bring the sacs this weekend! Alke Powell here I come!!

With weight in it throws an awesome wake

I would suggest addingt two 350 sac, one on each side of the engie and a skinny 375 on the floor up front. But if room isnt going to be an issue a 350 sac across the two bow seat would work. You need the weight up front to keep the bow down. Set the taps at 3 and it should be an alright wake. Play around with the taps and you may set it down more according to prefrence

Hope this helps. Good luck

it might look like this. I'm riding at 70 feet (this was with the above mentioned weight and two people in the boat)

now that I think of it that pic was from a 20i and we had 450 more pounds in it. 200lbs of lead under bow seat and 250lbs of lead in the back but taps set only at 2.5

the 21i should be alot better with that much weight

I've got one 500lbs sac and two 350's. The 500 only fits in the back and it sounds like I dont need it there, should I just bring the 350's? There should be plenty of folks in the boat...schools out for summer!!!
