Axis Wakeboard Boat Forum

So you are running the plug and play sack in the front plus another bag? If so, how much weight total in the front?

I weight the front depending on how many people and weight total i have in the rear. if there is not enough in the front then the wake is pretty much a wall. i had 1500 plus wedge and 5 180 pound guys in the rear plus factory of course, last time and it was too steep.The plug and play sack and an aditional 250 lbs in the front made the wake perfect.I also tried it without the extra weight in the front and no wedge. The wake was nice but didnt have the size and kick like it did with the wedge and extra 250 up front.

thanks... that sounds around the same ratio we use to ride... and the wedge does give that little extra lip at the top for a nice kick.

How much weight are you putting in your boat with the 1235 prop and how long does it take you to get to wake speed ? Also what is your top speed ?

I use the stock tanks, wedge and plug and play... plus 6 peeps. I usually do not fill the locker bags completely because i like the longer transition it has with more weight up front. I have the hammerhead motor in my boat, so even with it loaded, it pulls the rider out of the water easily. Top speed is around 38-39.

We run 2 - 750# sacks in the back and an extra 750# in front on top of the plug and play bag in front with the wedge down. The 14.5/14.25 just wouldn't pop out of the water. I'm pulling a tournament Saturday so I need to be on plans quick.

If you remember snap a couple pics of the wake with the boat loaded... I would like to see it.

Is that the 537? The 1235 is one option. I just emailed Acme about the new 16XX prop that they are recommending. I would call Acme and talk with Bill Weeks. He knows all about which prop is best for which boat application.

I love the new one. I will get some pics id the I called bill and got the 1615 which is 14.5/12.75 the first week I had my boat. most aggressive they offer. Mine came with the 13.5 x16 it sucked. I love the new one. Only bad is 34 is top speed. I can load it down with everything I have and it comes right up. I will try and get some pics of the boat and wake this weekend.

I talked to the guys at Acme. Seems like they offer the 1615 and the 1235 for the Axis boat. What was the price on your 1615? Was it a little cheaper than the 1235?
