No other manufacturer can boast up to 2,500 beefy pounds of ballast, and nobody else can fill and empty their ballast system as fast as MB. No more waiting around for antiquated pump systems to fill the tanks, or muscling those cumbersome fatsacks into position because for 2012, MB has developed the fastest ballast system in the industry. The secret is the gravity-fed gate valve system that utilizes dual 4" diameter openings. The system is electronically activated and allows the tanks to be filled or emptied in less than 60 seconds. No pumps, no hassle, no waiting around.
The new MB ballast system has already been praised for its simplicity and effectiveness. Rocker switches are located in an easy to reach, billet aluminum control center next to the driver to activate the electronic gate valves that open the ports. A dashboard gauge allows the driver to monitor the tanks and customize the weight to build the perfect wake. Customizable ballast on the fly means you can custom-tune your wake building water-weight for any style and level of rider. Best of all, the tanks run the length of the boat and are internally baffled, balancing distribution from 1,800 to 2,500 pounds of ballast and leaving the deck and storage space free for passengers and gear. Why trip over fatsacks laying on the floor of your boat when you can have the entire ballast system integrated into the frame of the boat? In fact, we're the ones who invented underdeck ballast.
