I bought a fat sac.. and then bought some waterbed tubes off of ebay.
I got 6 tubes, about 5 ft long, weigh about 75-80 lbs each..
All 6 tubes for $30 shipped Very Happy

I was reading a site and it said to either put the people in your boat in back, or if you have some concrete blocks or bricks, put them in the bakc of the boat, anything that weighs a lot and wont move around in your boat u could prolly put back there. Sandbags are really heavy too, a lot heavier than water.

like they said, you could do sandbags for even cheaper and im sure they would take up less room in ure boat. sandbags weigh around 80 pounds each also

I would go with a sandbag if you dont have the money, sand is very heavy. and its cheap. ILWakeAir, is right, they are cheap and they dont take up a lot of room at all. Sandbags is the smartest thing to do i think, if you want to make a homemade fat sac.
