Often forgotten but equally important, additional weight in the bow of your boat is a vital part of the total equation for improving your wake. Following up on the tremendous success of our exclusive UniversalFIT Rear Locker Ballast Bags, and based on feedback from customers, we are excited to release a new line of UniversalFIT bags designed specifically to fit underneath the bow seats.

Our UniversalFIT V-Shape Bow Bags are a new take on an older design. We know one size does not fit all, so we made three size options allowing you to get the best fit for your boat. Ideal for boats with a traditional bow shape, our V-Shape bags are designed to be underneath the bow seats for a clean install that keeps your bow seating open for passengers. This bow bag can be installed with a new pump system, replace a smaller factory bow bag, or used with a portable pump.

Available in a range of sizes for better fitment and improved wake performance, the UniversalFIT V-Shape Bow Bag allows you to choose the dimensions that best fit underneath your bow seats. The result is a much better fitting bag, allowing you to fill to capacity and maximize added weight for the best possible wake. WakeMAKERS UniversalFIT ballast bags give you a nearly perfect fit without the expense of building a custom bag.

Not the ideal size and shape for your boat? For boats with coolers or dividers underneath the bow seating, or pickle fork bows with wider bow areas, check out our WakeMAKERS UniversalFIT Dual Bow Ballast Bags.

All WakeMAKERS ballast bags come standard with an industry-leading two year warranty. The bags are constructed using DuraTEK, our proprietary material that is strong, durable, and puncture-resistant. Once the material is cut, the bags are welded together with 1" seams to ensure a clean look and watertight seal. There are four of our unique DryLOK 1" ports on each ballast bag. These ports feature a tapered thread pattern and bottom o-ring for a leak-free seal. The larger port size allows water to flow quicker for faster fill/drain times.

If you are shopping for a ballast bag to be used in the bow of your boat, the WakeMAKERS UniversalFIT ballast bags are a no-brainer decision. From the quality craftsmanship to the innovative design, these ballast bags are built to deliver improved wakes behind your boat.

Take Your Business to FatSac

Not usually a customer to write reviews but in this case I feel it warrants one. After a phone call with the support team I ordered this bow bag for my boat in February, knowing it was on back order but being assured that the wait time is only 2-3 weeks. Months past with zero follow up and no communication on when to expect it. Now in June, a dozen phone calls later leading to now where I was able to get them to send me a comparable fat sac option which they had in stock. None of the fittings I had originally purchased were compatible with this bag, and the customer service again failed to be useful and has yet to send me any of the fittings. Bad company to work with, do not give them your hard earned money. In the end, it took one phone call with FatSac and they had someone drive to fedex to ensure I got the parts I need to piece this all together in time for my company at the lake.

Does not fit Malibu Wakesetter 23 LSV

Arms were about 6in short. Would have helped me to see more measurements on the graphic rather than the table. Happy with the products Wakemakers put out... just wrong size. Tried 300 and 500lb bags.

Good Bag for Calabria

The bag is a little too large for my 2006 Calabria Pro-V II but it works just fine. I just don't fill it all the way up.
