Not enough power with that boat. Parasailing requires beaucoup HP, and
some major modifications to accomodate the platform and winch, etc.

So I got this new 2005 Bayliner 175 Capri on the way (tomorrow night),
I've been interested in learning about how boat parisailing works? Where,
or what would I search on to research this ? Does it use a wind-up rope
deal or what ? Is it expensive stuff to get into ?

Thanks





You can do the parasailing without a platform and winch, but you still needs
gobs of HP! And a bigger boat. Years ago, we did it with a tournament ski
boat and beach starts. But with a big wind, the boat would be pulled
backwards at times.
