How much is it to add the wakeplate to that MB? Did you drive it? What kind of price is it? A brand new MB isn't all that expensive in comparison to how much some of the used boats are going for. Also, how much is all of that ballast going to cost you? Some of the MB guys are running 4,000 lbs for surfing. Not dogging the MB, just making sure you know what you need to buy to get that wave.

Wakeplate DIY is under $300. Not hard. Wave in the video above is an 1100 sack and a fly high integrated bow sack. It's not like those are particularly expensive bags.
The reason MB guys can run 4K in ballast is because the factory gravity fill tanks hold 2300... so 2300+1100+400 ish in the bow could look like 4k lbs. All hidden with tons of storage. Of course you do need to bleed off water from the non-surf side to get the wave to clean up, so realistically 3000-3500 lbs.
size wise there's absolutely no comparison between MB 23 and an RZ2. MB cabin is way way more spacious.
