With my 14 Vandall and the 350, fully weighted down and 1235 prop with gate open and wedge down, the boat washed out on take off. I normally ride with 4 or 5 adults and 1 child. I already ordered the 2315 prop but won't get to try it till next year. I've heard good results though.

I run with stock tanks full, a 950 up front and 2 900's in the back.

I run the same weight as you except I run a 400lb bag in the bow. It cleans the surf wake up nicely if you move some people to the surf side of the boat. I have the OJ945 (equal to the 2315) and the 330 engine.

Not the same as a 2015 350 engine.

Good enough though. I know a guy that wake boards with 750lbs in each rear locker and bow ballast full with wedge down and the 350 engine with the 1235. It takes about 30 seconds to get to plane but it puts out a hell of a wake.

I have the 350 with the 2313... no issues at all; as the tractor gearing fixed any torque challenges. very low top end however; but we like to cruise. I let the Bajas go fast and burn fuel.

I've got a '15 T23 with the 350 in it. I usually surf with full factory ballast and 550s in the rears, 350 up front P&P, wedge down, and 8-12 people (22-25 year olds usually). Surfing, the engine does fine with the 2313 prop. Boarding, I can have 8+ people with it slammed down with the same weight and wedge down but I need 3 people in the bow and it still takes a bit of time to plane out. Once on plane, the engine handles it fine. That being said, if I were to do it over, I'd get the bigger engine to make it easier with a full crew and a wakeboarder.
