Thanks Your French is Fine... I know One Guys with a newer Supra on Lac St-Pierre, but that it! For sure when docking at the Marina she is a Turner! People seam to love the look and the sound!

Thanks

Wakeskate and wakeboard wake fine like that, but for surf, I did try with 2 bog guys leaning on the tower, the back of the boat was submerdge, but i dont seam to be able to drop down in the wake, Maybee mor wait in the front??? Have you surf your?

Gotta have most of the weight in back. Get someone to sit on the sundeck and put feet on swim platform (if you are comfortable doing that, it may not be legal where you are), then one more person sitting in rear seat, then thirs person can be leaning on the tower. No weight in front. You may need a sac for surfing or 4-5 guys.

Interior looks great!!!!!!!!! Was the hull really like that except for the stickers and large supra logo? Love it!!!

Thanks For the Tips, Everything is leagal up here untill you get BUSTED!!! LOL I will try that, I should stile be able to surf with this boat? Right? Should i put my manual wake plate all the way up?

I have did the tower and stickers all around, some sponsor sticker added as well, but the hull was as is! the top section stile have the original gel coat, the bottom haft got painted before but as a clear and stile look good, not a true gel coat but i thing it look good...

I didn't surf yet, but Mikey D's the man for the wake, I'm still putting mine back together, lucky to be able to run it!
Did try ballast tonight 400lb in the back between the doghouse/ and rearbench, wake bigger...much bigger
Can somebody get my brother to drive the boat straight????? I'm getting tired of washout!

Well i am concern to be honest....that much people in a comp, the water was almost getting in the rope locker!!!! i dont think i can make this better, i have a older liquid force board, A BOAT or Cadillac in other word, she floats for sure , maybee it's the board??

I was able to get some slack in the cable but really closes to the deck can't really pull back at all...:(

If you need more push to the wave, try weighting the boat more evenly in the back. Don't put ALL the weight in the corner. First weight it evenly, then weight the corner too.

It is pretty common to have water near the rubrail when properly weighted. :)

Remember to drive a little too fast at first, then slow down to your final speed. This makes the wave shape up nicely. Lets see a pic of your wave.

Is your wakeplate in the up or horizontal position? (or even a little above horizontal if possible)

Love the pic yowwza put a warning on that, i'm at work! :)

It's gotta get close to knee-high to be surfable. A bigger board may be easier as well. Try an ocean surf board if you have access to one.
