Is it unrealistic to expect my 2013 YamahaAR190 to produce a sufficient wake to surf with the additi

I wouldn't think so. Infact I think I have seen a few pictures of a decent wake off of a 190. Ballast added of course.
 
Any IdeA How The BAllast Set Up Works?
 
My wife is good at wake surfing. She couldn't do it behind our 190 unloaded.

Gonna load the boat up with friends and try.
 
Just try to avoid calling your friends "ballast"....LOL
 
But that does happen.... o_O
 
I bet if would be fun with some weight int the boat !!!! Half the fun for me is trying out different weight set ups!!! And different people like different setup s , example I like more bow weight and my wife likes more aft weight , so grab three 350 pound bags , and start playing around :) and have fun !!!!
