SKI-BOAT / WAKEBOARD-BOAT

Wikipedia about "Ski-boat"

In boating, a skiboat is a boat specifically designed to safely tow one or more waterskiers. This is achieved by using a high-horsepower, marinized automobile engine usually positioned in the midsection and driven through a direct drive to the propeller. A waterskier is pulled on a towrope attached to a tow bar located in front of the drive motor and affixed to the bottom of the hull. In the United States, in order for a boat to qualify as a skiboat or towboat, it must pass a series of eleven tests measuring the following boat characteristics:

  • Power and Acceleration
  • Handling and Maneuverability
  • Engineering
  • Drivability
  • Sound level
  • Slalom course center-line drivability
  • Slalom spray
  • Jumping center-line deviation
  • Jumping wake
  • Slalom wake
  • Tricks wake
