You heard it here first, Malibu is working on a new ballast system to replace the wedge concept. It is by far the best looking and most pleasant ballast system to work with. I've got some stealth pictures of them testing it on there private lake, I'll post them when I get home.

Why would they want to replace it? The new ballast system could just be supplemental. I will find out tomorrow from the TN plant. Confused

Ralph,

Not only is it going to be expensive - it also looks like it is a very "High Maintenance" system, but with a correspondingly high "fun factor".

Looks like a big inbrestment...I mean investment in the ballast tanks. How do they react in choppy conditions?

I always told you guys internal Brestestess systems were better than the wedgy.

I'll second that "HIGH MAINTENANCE FOR SURE", girls like that don't even talk to you unless you roll up in a Escalade with dubs....

PEACE
