Just 300# lead. You could for sure handle more weight up front which would keep you from having to place adults in the bow.

Never measured pitch and angles as GSA isnt adjustable on 2019’s. But what works great for us - we weight the boat evenly with everything full (sub floor & piggy backs) and place 300# of lead in bow, then have atleast 1 adult in the bow as well. Makes for an amazing wave both sides. Good luck!

My buddy has a MC X23 (their “surf boat”) and have surfed it many times, and its fine. But its wave is nowhere near as clean and with as much push as my ‘19 F21.

Thats great. Does it impact the wave at all?

Anyone know if those hinges are available and if they work on 2019 F21 cushions?

Welcome and yes there are some subtle thing you can do to get the wave better considering the f21 should be killer. Assuming your ‘17 F21 has GSA and is similar enough to my ‘19, here’s what works best for us - start by filling sub floor & piggy back tanks in rear lockers.This will make your nose pretty high while underway which creates a super steep wave close to the boat. You counteract this 2 ways: 1) speed - take your speed up tp 11.5 as opposed to the stock set up of 10.8 (as i recall) - this will make the wave longer, cleaner and more fun 2) bow weight - by plac

Haha thats rad.....nice find!! Probably would have run with that if i had found it. But the extreme rack works great as we us it for an 8’ ocean board on the star side and you can easily and more securely than stock put 2 wake surfboards on the port. Plus can put 2 more on bimini, so im loaded up. Looking forward to see someone work with these!

You bet, and as luck would have it the price went down 5 bucks....haha https://www.walmart.com/ip/Extreme-Max-3006-8453-Aluminum-Surfboard-Wall-Cradle/643821137?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=0

I had to relocate the bungees because I used holes to mount the top of each rack to create the outward angle. It was a simple swap as I just put the bungees in the original top rack screw holes. And for securing the boards, I run the bungee from the back of the rack to the bottom of the board and then over the top and secure it at the overlap where the racks swivel. Sounds complicated but not - boat at lake right now but can take/post pics later next time im there.

Thats awesome and great minds. A few weeks ago I found some aluminum wall racks and did something similar. Decided to mount mine at an angle in order to add more stability and to allow for the rack to still be able to swivel. Well done bud.

I have a ‘19 F21 and here’s what i bought based upon their sizing tool: Color: Haze Gray Part#: 82121P Performance Poly-Guard Fits great and covers tip to swim platform without getting too custom. Only thing i do is wrap a noodle around the tower tow point/light so that the fabric has extra support. Good luck!

If you leave your tower up and want it to be covered along with the swim platform, highly recommend with one of these: https://www.carvercovers.com We’ve had a couple of them and they work great!

Yup, the transom cup holder that is just above and to the right of the horn itself.

Can’t speak to a B52 specifically, but we just got a 2019 F21 and loving it. From what Ive heard their hulls are virtually the same from windshield back. It replaced our MC X45 that had a great wave (waist high) running 3600# ballast with tons of push (on the right board you can ride 20’ back). Just finished breaking in the F21 and its every bit as big and good as the X45 with even more push. And its way more fuel efficient. We part time run it in altitude (big bear 6k’) with the 6.2 and it does fine. If it was going to be run up there full time id prob prob down, but as part

That’s a great idea. Is there one that exists today for exile? All im finding is the exile media center. If so i wonder if the size is right to cover the hole.
