Re: How to tow multiple skiiers?
We tow multiple skiers off the transom eyes to get the pull closer to the waterline. Either split the ropes between the two eyes or we use the heavy duty harness/bridle typically reserved for pulling the big tubes. Attache that to the transom eyes and then all the tow ropes come off that - just a lot of connections to make in one spot.
We've always done deep water starts. If you have a two or three experienced skiers I'd go for the doc start. To minimize drag we have either put skiers in shortie wetsuits or TAPED swim trunk legs with duct tape. It is best if ropes are the same length.
Have fun!
Line management. Lots of prep to get six ropes the same length, round up skis and get everything sorted out and ready to go. Six cousins behind 115 outboard followed by a July 4 tour of the lake.
5 cousins plus three adults a few years later. 150 outboard.
