I have a 17' Maverick tunnel hull with a 60 hp yamaha four stroke, do u think that I would be able to get up on a wakeboard behind that, and if i did would it do any damage to the boat?

Re: Wakeboarding behind a 17' Maverick 60 hp

I'm not familiar with the boat, but pulling up a wakeboarder isn't a huge task. A slalom skier or tube would be a significantly more forceful pull.
I would expect that if the boat is capable of a 60hp motor it's more than capable of towing a wakeboarder.

I learned to ride behind a 40 hp 2 seater sea doo and went from novice to advanced behind a 16' glassmaster.
