I want to be able to add ballast next year, just not sure where the best place is going to be. The obvious is in the Love Shack, but I am not sure that just adding it there will produce the best wake. Any suggestions?

You want to balance your ballast about 40/60 split, 40% weight up front and 60% towards the stern. It's not the most ideal layout but I have found a good set up is along both sides of the dog house for wakeboarding.

I was kind of thinking that I was going to have to put a sac on each side of the dog house. I suppose that won't be too much problem. When we are boarding it is usually people that won't mind jumping over them. And then on the weekends when we are mainly tubing due the traffic I can stow them below.
