Towing my ski behind the boat.

[D 5UPE]

Im toying with the idea of towing the ski behind the boat and saving fuel till iI get to the spot I like to let my hair down and play.

I dont want to tow the ski to the spot and then go seek the boat ( The boats used by the family to get changed into wet gear) So had the Idea of keeping my Ski tied up at the Marina sitting on an inflatable called a Jobe Tornado. (ringo with no hole 8' diameter)
This way its out of the water and it will keep marina owner happy knowing its not been ridden amongst the boats in there.

Anyone done the towing storage thing with your ski. How did you do it?

Slowly or...

Skis can be towed slowly, 5 mph maybe.
Or clamp the three hoses coming from the pump.
One is a larger hose from the pump to the cylinder head.
Two are smaller going to the self bailers in the bottom of the Hull.
If the hoses are not clamped shut, Water pressure in the pump will
force its self in to the motor and hull.
Just do not forget to remove the clamps before You run the Ski.

That's right. I knew about that. And thanks for refreshing my thread.
So as I said above I was floating the Doo on a large inflatable, sort of like giving it it's own water trailer. Is there anything on the Market that's made as a towable pontoon.
