would it be ok to pull a tube with my boat

[RLT III]

as you look down at my signature you can see my boat and specs. Does any one know if it would be alright to pull a tube? 1 or 2 person? I have 2 eyelets on the back and would the rig with the float and double hooks and then rope and tube behind. I've a petty good hole shot and run about 27 knots on a light to mod/chop with 3 people and loaded gear. Any suggestions would help

Thanks Robert

I don't know why you couldn't. Plenty of power and boat.

My wife skied behind my dad's 14' V Alumacraft with a 25 Johny just to prove a point:redface:.

I see small fishing boats pulling tubes and skis all the time, and with smaller motors.

I just would not try to pull a Big Mable or something like that.

WallyWorld have some decent tubes for little more than fifty bucks.
One thing I have learned through the years when I was buying the big name brand expensive tubes is, they blow out just the same as the less expensive ones.

I usually go at the end of season and buy up three or four on clearance, then I am good to go the next year.

Personally, I prefer the flat tubes. but for smaller kids, the doughnut tubes are a little better.

Just don't go cheap on the pull rope.

Have a good one
