Material:
Durable Design: Reinforced high grade polymer. Anodized aluminum and stainless steel. And it floats.
Features:
Compatible with Most Inboard Boats
Makes Waves Even Better On Boats with Factory Surf Tabs
Ballast: Weight the boat evenly left to right, with 60% ballast in the back and 40% in the front. More ballast in the back increases the wave height and more in the front increases the wave length. If you have a mid-engined inboard, you will want to use more weight in the back to compensate for the center engine weight. Also, longer boats require more ballast to offset the additional buoyancy of the hull.
Speed: With a decently weighted v-drive, start at 10mph and work your way up. Slower speeds generate more height and faster speeds generate more length (at the expense of height). You should settle in around 11.2mph but that all depends on the length, hull shape, ballast, passenger weight, and your preference.
Universal Design: Compatible with most inboard boats. DELTA will deliver a great wave on almost any boat with the right ballast setup and DELTA attached in the right location. Mission's tested many boats and has been able to find a place that works on almost all of them.
Installation:
Location: Look for a 5x13” smooth location about 2-4” below the waterline when fully ballasted and at surf speeds. The location must be free of decals. Note, if DELTA needs to be placed lower then that, you can lean the boat slightly towards the surf side to lift DELTA up closer to the surface of the water. Also position DELTA as far back as possible. If you have very little ballast Mission recommends unscrewing and reversing the orientation of the front panel so that it is positioned even further back. This allows the panel to be fully submerged when in motion which improves effectiveness and reduces splashing.
Switch Sides in Seconds: Symmetrical design allows DELTA to work on both sides of the boat.
Reversible: Front panel reverses so you can fine-tune the wave on your boat.
Clean Attachment: Attaches in seconds and removes without a trace.
Maximum Grip: Oversized suction cups provide plenty of holding power.
Notable Compatibility Exceptions: Dual Engine Jet Boats (too much jet wash), 06-07 Mastercraft X2 (large decals), and '99 Malibu Response LX (steps are too small).
