Does your 212X already have ballast tanks like the 2017 model? Or is everything you added after market? Wave looks great so I'm just try to figure out how it compares with the "stock" wave.
Because I'm seriously thinking about buying the 2017 212X. Thx

Her wave is no comparison to a stock wave. WAY bigger.

They have very expensive Wakemakers custom bags and secret $hit they don't tell.
(Yes, I am bitterly envious. Can you tell?)

@Dave burkeb my advice is get a used 212x with j seating and save yourself a ton of cash. There is nothing left of the stock system. The wakemaker bags were only about $50 more than fly high. Both pumps needed to be upgraded. I had my system done by my dealer but even paying labor if was around $2k. I added 200 lbs of lead weight and a 450 sumo sac on the back deck. That wake from yesterday was with driver and spotter on the boat.
