I'm sure it can be done. My PS190 will make a surf-able wake with 1500 lbs in an L shape in the rear corner.

Never actually tried... but i have asked a couple buddies (3) to sit all on the port side corner and i swear its double. Granted your probably gonna need the biggest board you can find...lol i am interested though to see what others say.

I've done it on my 86 with 3 rather large people in the back and i'm only 130lbs. Not sure if that helps

this is behind my 79 s & s -- so it can be killer
with a waterbed mattress, a fatty, and like 4 ppl in the corner--make sure your not getting too much water into the fuel overflow valve though

That's a pretty good wake there ssippiriverrat! I have thought about getting a 1500 lb L sac and try my luck surfing after a nice slalom set.

we rarely fill it all the way--just enough to get the deck underwater--

I will say with that and my seat in the back, it leaves little room actually walk on the floor in my boat

Ive done it with my 84. As mentioned I use 2 750lb sacs in an L shape in the back corner. Swim Platform will be 3-4 inches underwater.
