What is the factory setup for stock ballasts?

You asking for weights? 

Hard Tank Ballast: 1,618 lbs. Center: 868 lbs. Rears: 375 lbs. Bow PNP: 450 lbs. Rear PNP: 1,100 lbs 550 each. The power wedge is another 1500 lbs on top of this

It just seems to get cut off as you start talking about the bimini. Thst being said the 2 videos you posted on the touch screen functions were greatly informative. Thanks for those

Has anyone been in a T220 with the M5? Is it enough power for fully loaded wakeboarding and surfing? If so, what prop? Did you notice RPMs? I'm not at elevation and was considering going with the base engine and torque prop but have not been able to demo one with that configuration.

I have not been on the T220 with M5 but that is how we ordered ours.  My reasoning was our 22VLX had the Raptor 410 (similar to M5) with 2277  prop and we never had any issues with fully loaded wakeboarding nor surfing.  We aren't at elevation either so I see no reason why this setup wouldn't be as good or better than before.  Didn't have a lot of info on props for the new models so we spec'd with the 2277 again and if it's not right, I'll make it a spare.

You should be good! I’m not at elevation either and took delivery of my T220 in September with M5, stock prop, and PnP ballast. I put my break in hours and 5+ hours of surfing before winterization and I had no complaints from multiple Malibu/Axis owners that surfed behind it. I don’t have any feedback on wakeboarding but don’t think it would be an issue.

Any TMC members get their T220 yet?  Just got word that ours was pushed back 3 weeks but the system is showing my Build Date #1 at 3/2 so we're getting closer.

No word yet on a spray date. We ordered pretty late in the summer though.

I have one on order, build date 3/1...I ordered M5 as sales rep assured me it was fine for this boat.  

as long as you don't have big crews wanting to surf and wakeboard plus full ballast or you will have to prop it accordingly

What prop would you recommend for bigger crew/high altitude?  I’d like to pickup an extra prop to have a spare…

i do not know your drivetrain,  i only know an m220 its cousin is a huge boat for 22 feet and now one is buying those with an m5,  their is always a torque prop for your set up, hopefully your dealer already knows if he is selling big boats with smaller motors or acme or OJ will give you good advice 

have you considered changing engine options and sacrificing other options

I have ordered a T220 with an M6 and power prop,

 

Pros and cons?

 

Pros On full ballast pulls will help

Cons More fuel consumption

 

All your coments will be helpfull

I just received a spray date of 5/31 for my T220. I placed my order on 2/15 on a build slot that the dealer had in November.

We ordered ours with the M6 but our lakes are still frozen. We ordered standard prop.  and will see how it goes I don't think the torque prop would be necessary.

I demoed a T220 with the M6 and torque prop. It was way overkill. (at standard elevation). Good call on the standard prop.

what was the cruising RPM with that setup?  did you run it up to top speed at all?

I don't recall exactly, but I know surfing was at about 4k. It 'felt' like too much prop.

that motor shouldn't need 4k to surf this boat.

Can someone who has access to their T220 please count the cupholders for me?

Did you also know that the driver's compartment cupholder is large enough to hold a water bottle?
