I have skied behind my boat before and learned a few things real quick. You don't want to ski faster than about 25 or 30. That being said, I found a pair of 17" aluminum props on the cheap just for skiing and tubing. I run full tabs to keep the bow down but man...this old 'bird throws a hell of a wake at 20~25 mph. I ended up building a 100 ft tow rope that works great and gets you out of the prop wash. With the 17" props I have no problem pulling up 2: 200 lb plus men on one ski...I mean snaps them right up:evilb: We do ocean skiing on smooth days...it's really kool to be running along 25 mph in 30' of water looking at the bottom!!
