My wife is awsome, she just surprised me with some ballast bags from board stop. Rear 750's I'm on my way home to try to install them how long does it take on a 2011?

took me 20 minutes. hated how slow they were. disconnected them. now i am buying a ballast pump to use. i may try some setups like these guys have on here. i am considering getting the reversible pumps that mastercraft uses in their boats and having their own dedicated fill, drain, and vent.

The 750's are a perfect match IMO for the Axis...unless you're just that good you need the 1100's lol and the bigger engine.

Tried them out today and the wake was great, I did find out that my front ballast switch is backwards on the dash. Is that something I can fix myself or should it go to the dealer? Also does anyone have trouble when loading the boat the rub rail gets white marks on it from the guide poles and they don't want to come off any ideas?

My rub rails also get that stuff on them, and I can't seem to get it off either. Someone told me to use acetone and wipe it off then dry it fast, I haven't had the nerve to try it yet, that stuff is pretty harsh. On the switch you can probably just look under the dash and switch the wires.

Aceton works really well but also SOS pads and water work as good.

The green can of brake clean works for the marks too.
