I have most of the supplies in now and the way it is set up is 3 seperate water puppy pumps and 550 # on each side of the motor and 370 # in the center. Any comments would be appreciated . I want a decent wake but not a monster wake. Thank you in advance for your comment.

I have an 03 SAN same hull and have 750's in the rear and 1100 in the center and 650 bow sac under the front seats.....highly recommend weight up front.

How do you have 1100 in the center? Is that a combination of the ski locker and bow walkthru?

I suck at spelling. WOW Whiskey that sounds like a big ass wake. Would you recomend a shut off valve?

toooo much in the back .... get some up front, this is our supersport setup and its money.

500 each side of engine = 1000 rear
700 ski locker = 700 mid
700 bow triangle sac = 700 bow

I run 750's in the rear compartments, in the locker a 1180lbs gravity games bag that I guess I get maybe 1000 in it, and then a 400lbs bag in the nose.

Is the gg sack in the walkthru or the ski locker?

New prop too? Definitely do the 750 bags in the rear though

1997 Super Sport

Rear - 1000 (two 500's)
Center - 500
Front - 500

Total ~2000 lbs
The wake is money!

The gravity games bag is in the locker.

Crazy, the last supersport I was in didn't have near enough room for a 1000 sack in the ski locker. I think we put a 750 in there and I would venture to say we got maybe 600 lbs to fit in there. Have you modified it in any way.

My GG is in the locker as well

1997 Super Sport

Rear: 1150 lbs.
Mid: 100 lbs. lead
Ski Locker : 700 lb. custom sac
Front: 325 lbs.

Around 2,200 lbs. and couldn't be happier with the wake. BTW, upgrade the stock prop!

BTW, the ski locker on the super sports (at least my 97) can only hold a little over 700 lbs. when completely full of water. I took measurements when I ordered my custom sac and figured out how much water it would hold.

This is a super old thread, but I am looking at buying a super sport and was surprised by the lack of weight in the nose. I figured it would be closer to 600lbs.
