I am sure that Renn Tolman, designer of the Tolman Skiff never intended
his boats to be used for...........wakeboarding and I'm not even sure
they
do such things in AK where he is from. However, my son has gotten
interested in wakeboarding and believe it or not my 20 Standard Tolman
Skiff with 90 hp Yamaha does fairly well as a tow craft.
So far, we have simply rigged a simple bridle from the stern cleats but
now my son has assurred me that a "tower" will make her much more useful
for wakeboarding and that I could probably make such a thing easily.
Nothing like playing on Dad's natural desire to build stuff.
So, where on a boat should the attachment point be for towing a wake
board? How high should it be?
Such an ignominous thing for such a noble craft that I intended to be
used
for exploring. Monday, I was excited over exploring the "Crooked River"
that runs into the Ocklocknee River of N. FL but the boys looked bored
so
I gave in and we went back out of gator paradise to more open water for
them to play.
Still, it was day on the water.


At least it sees water...think of Snotties poor rowboat.
It sits there year after year, rotting away and only used by a family
of critters as shelter.

You just had to be asinine.


Hi Swill......yes, you might call it 'the culture' of this newsgroup.

Nope, I just call it head up your ass stupidity by you.


Good call!
