So basically a bit of a design flaw if it gets plugged up that easy it seems like?

Yeah that's really odd, I would be following that to see what is stopping it from draining. At least having another bilge will do the job, but it should be gravity fixing the issue really.

I would venture a guess that it might be slightly bent? Take it out and roll it on a flat surface and you'll know pretty quickly, especially if you can take the two halves completely apart and roll them each. Any wobble in either one and you've probably found your issue.

Wow, that is entirely different than the 230, I can see what you mean now. And I agree, if your bilge is dry, I would think too this is rain water collecting in the locker. The drain that is in the lip of the ski locker, is that clean and working? You've run a garden hose or something through...

Something is still amiss here, that hole you're mentioning looks to be one of the holes through the hull fiberglass that connects the various compartments, but those are all underneath the floor, ski locker, etc. Again, unless the 210 is completely different, the ski locker on the 230 is a...

Can you post a pic of the ski locker setup and where the drain is? Now you've really got me wondering if the setup is vastly different than the 230.

I'll second the comment about how easy some of the drain lines plug up, I also have a 230 but I'm quite sure the design is the same, the ski locker drains into the engine compartment to be pumped out by the bilge. The main deck drain at the back corner goes to the back and out above the water...

Haha, pics or it didn't happen!

I love summer, but love the break of winter (as long as there's snow) too. Boat is also currently tucked away in a shop, time to put this toy back together!

As mentioned, it's not really a matter of being able to pull it, it's a matter of being able to stop. It's a relatively light boat and trailer, but the more important factor would be the tongue weight of the trailer, and GAWR (gross axle weight rating) of the vehicle so you're not overloading...

I always did love the SP's orange/white colour combo (especially since I'm also a KTM guy haha!), but just happened to find the deal on the Wake 230 instead. Sweet looking boat! As for the lake place, looks fantastic, pretty jealous you have the boat on a lift out the back door. That is a goal...

Will be curious to see what you figure out! I guess I don't go in and out of there enough to have ever thought about modifying it, but it is a slight nuisance when you scrape your hand getting the anchors in and out.

Correct, I debated having the foam shaved off to all be at the lower level, however also didn't want to lose the backrest aspect. That's when the guy doing the work for me suggested he could add foam to the existing foam instead, so opted to go that route. Worked very well, have been very...

My 2010 Wake 230 is exactly the same. It's an odd angle that it opens to, have to carefully pull the anchors in or out to not bang things or scrape my hands. It's a nuisance, but I never thought of putting a longer strut on. Alternatively, could probably just remove the strut altogether, not?

Almost identical boats I think, other than mine has the built in ballast and perfect pass system I think? In terms of the sun pad, I wasn't missing the middle piece, but as you can see in these pictures the vinyl was cracking and tearing, and because of the hump on the front of the pad, the...
