Ballast is used to both provide stability for the boat and assist in weight control and distribution, which has an effect on the size and shape of the wake. Generally, more weight is put in the stern to lower the boat’s draft and therefore push more water into the wake. However, the ballast may be placed anywhere the boat operator desires to create the wake they want. Ballast comes in the form of sandbags or hard tanks filled with water.
Wakeboard boats are specifically engineered with features and functions that assist in generating the high wakes necessary for water sports. Understanding these features will help you in creating the best experience possible for anyone on the water with you. These features include hydrofoils, hull technology, wakeboard towers, and ballast.
Hull technology refers to how the boat manufacturer's hull design effects the size of the wake from the boat. Manufacturers also specialize in shaping the rudder propeller and fins under the boat so that the operator has ultimate control over the wake creation process. However, it's important to realize that since these features protrude so far from the main hull wakeboard boats are not suitable for shallow waters. here
Wakeboard towers are an anchor point for the tow rope that provides a steeper angle for whatever is being towed. This increased angle enables wakeboarders and other watersports enthusiasts to successfully use wakes as a launch ramp and subsequently stay in the air longer. here
Hydrofoils are extendable wedges and plates that give the boat operator control over the size and shape of the wake. By displacing water, these hydrofoils can push the wake higher or wider to the boat operator's discretion. here

Taking On Water -- Whether the engine compartment floods or the hull has taken on water, it's likely to be an unpleasant ride. Flooding often occurs when the jet ski flips upside down or when a drain plug is knocked out, leaving a compartment open below the waterline. If this water reaches the engine, it can cause a condition known as hydrolock, where water enters the engine cylinder and seizes the motor. Trying to start the engine again without proper service will likely damage it further. If you suspect that your jet ski has water in the engine, tow it to shore and bring it to West Valley Watercraft for professional repairs.
Winterizing -- If your jet ski has been sitting idle for months after the off-season, a tune-up is a great idea before you ride again. From dead batteries to blown spark plugs to corrosion in the electrical systems, months without riding can take a toll on your watercraft without the proper precautions. Prevent these issues before they happen by bringing your jet ski to West Valley Watercraft after your last ride of the fall. We will winterize your vehicle, performing routine maintenance to protect it through the winter, and be ready for next season on the first beach day of spring.
Impeller Damage -- If your jet ski loses speed and throttle response or makes an unusual noise from below, there is probably an issue with the impeller. Debris in the impeller channel can block or break the rotors on the impeller, causing a drastic reduction in performance and potentially a total loss of propulsion. While it is sometimes possible to locate and remove the debris from the outside, freeing the impeller often requires bringing your watercraft in for jet ski repair in Phoenix, AZ. We will remove the intake grate and impeller housing to find the problem, and replace any damaged impeller blades if necessary. [links]
