Supra Comp TS6M??

[SwiftChaos]

Hey I have had a 88' Supra Comp TS6M since 1988 and I am wanting to try to wake surf behind it and I am wondering if it is even possible to. If it is possible what do you guys recommend to put in the boat to get it able to wake surf.

Yes it can be done with 1100lbs of ballast and a wave creator but It's not a $150,000 wave like the new Supra but still fun

Where is the wave? Cannot see anything in those pics.

Oh goodness, a Comp with 1100 lbs still weighs less than my ‘83 Rider and I would never surf the Rider.
The weight capacity sticker on a Comp is 6 persons or 835 pounds. One good wave over the bow and this boat is going down. I just don’t get this fascination with surfing a Comp. Not my boat however so not my worry.

Bless your heart, my thoughts were the same but didn’t want to say it. Why risk tearing up a good transmission for a minimal wave?

But water weight is less than lead weight right? Clearly 1,100 pounds of water weighs less than 835 pounds of non water items.

Smaller length, narrow beam, light weight, center engine are made for . . .

And they do it well.

Even if a towboat is sold as a "crossover boat", what does it really do well?

Boat makers try, but a skiier or surfer would typically say blah.

If you want to enhance your wake boarding/surfing experience, I definitely recommend checking out ezDrive Thrusters for your boats: https://www.ezdrivethruster.com/

Numerous Supras and other types have them installed and they have very good reviews!

You only need a thruster if you have a big heavy barge type boat that can't get out of its own way on its own. You can also hire a tugboat or two to help you dock.
