Curious how it rides with empty ballast and 1k lbs of lead in the bow.. my boat would be super low in the nose.

With that 2313 prop and your ballast filled (or even partially filled), will your boat get up on plane for wakeboarding speed?

Probably without wedge

I agree. The bow weight will help plane. 2315 would be a little better though

My 2016 T23 im running 1100's in the rear as well. I just bought the 2313 prop it doesnt appear to make the wave any better or worse but the RPM's shot up 2-300. How are you guys dealing with the 1100's pushing the motor side panel's in? Im also running about 1000 in ballast and led in the bow and 400 in each side compartment. I also put about 250 extra pounds of led in the back lockers under the PNP bags its helps .

Some of the people i know weight their boat down even more on an Axis T20 or T22 with the 350 motor.

How are you guys with the 1100's in the rear trunks dealing with the plastic panels pushing in that protect the motor?

Wakemakers sells a kit with 3 pieces of aluminum channel to stiffen up panel.

Currently it doesn't completely plane since all we mainly do is surf 10.8-11.2 MPH. Ive added more led today hopefully it planes more. I noticed the 1235 the stock prop was 36-3800 RPM and now the 2313 Prop is max 4k RPM which is cruising speed. I Plan to try to get up to wake boarding speed tomorrow im testing the 2313 still. If im not happy my prop guy will happily exchange it for the 2315.

I run the wedge but i'll try without tomorrow .

Im trying to figure out what size bags i have in the back of my 2017 T23. They are def custom made for this boat as they look kind like an upside down L ? Are these the 1100s?

Mine are the same i bought the 1100's they fill the compartment perfectly. But you need to add bow weight to even out the boat so it can plain.
