Tell me more...do think the shape of the hull has something to do with how the boat comes out of the hole and on plane? Do think the new hull handles the weight better than your A22? I really struggled between choosing the A22 and the T22 and even though I haven't even taken delivery I am thinking it was the right choice.

They seem to handle and plane off about the same. On my A22 I used the wedge plus 400 rears and the mushroom bow sac which I think only holds about 750 despite what axis and fly high says. I think that wake was smaller than my T22. That said and all the extra room I gained in the T22 I love the thing!!

I can't see the wake being much different. You did get some extra room though. I am still not a fan of the carpet walls. The T22 would have made me think twice when I bought my A22. I like them both.

I would love the carpet seat bases in my A24. I think it gives the boat a more finished and refined look

The problem I have with carpeted bases or floors is that you can't take it out to clean so it can get nasty if not always dried properly.

As for the arrow sack, it fills to only about 625lbs under the A22 seats. There is a thread on here somewhere that I explained how I tested it if you care.

You really don't have to worry about everything drying properly because the new CS covers that come with Malibu/Axis boats are so well ventilated that everything stays very dry and has never mildewed. It's the cheap cloth covers that don't allow for good evaporation that are the problem.
