Hi, I have a 19" bayliner bowrider.
I also have a custom tower,
Fat sacs? You bet, 3 fat with a total weight of
1100 pounds, is that enough for a decent wake.
How about the line, 70 feet long? At 21 mph?
Thanks
Josh Razz

Sounds like a good start. Have you tried that set up yet? Line legnth depends on the amount of weight, speed, and rider preference. Remember more weight towards the front = rampier and more weight towardas the rear = rampier. That much weight should get you a good wake. Perfect pass is a must.

I think BIGMAC meant "more weight towards the rear=vertier" (is vertier a word?)

i would save the money that you'll spend on perfect pass until you decide to get the inboard that you want.
