      The new 24Ve is amazing, but I couldn't believe the actual tested specs. First wakemakers.com worked with us on this and they did a great job. Also, the sacs are probably 1800 lbs + sacs, they are very large. 1500 lbs is the amount that wakemakers actually measured going into the bag as it fits in the area it fills. So that is 1500 actual lbs per side.

      Fill times with the motor running:

      Front (400lbs horshoe sac): 2:30
      Regular side (1500lbs) fill with booster pump from empty: 6:45
      Transfer from Regular to Goofy: 3:47
      Transfer from Goofy to Regular: 4:00

      DUDE! All that and the wake is amazing. The 2007 24Ve has a 340HP MP motor and a 1235 prop, we need a bit more prop. We took measurements of fuel after 10 hours of nothing but surfing.

      3.75 GPH! Can you believe that?

      Checkout the video of side to side test with motor OFF, and wake video. Amazing stuff.

      NOTE: This is a Contest boat project. Keep that in mind, our RZ2 was weighted in a manner we felt safe for daily outings, just kissing the rub rail. The 24Ve requires putting the rub rail under water to get the kind of push needed for a contest. Not recommended for a family boat, or recreational surf setup.



      Staytuned for all of the how to videos. The system is fully automated and SICK.
      Ragboy I hate it when you do this kind of stuff. Now I have to upgrade my ballast because of you.
