O'Brien ski designer asked his WIFE to set the RPMs on BOTH motors to
the figure he preferred while checking out the last modification he
made to the ski. Skiing with two motors was done was the point I was
attempting to make. Don't have any idea how "wife" ended up as
"with"! Sorry.

At Lake Shasta in northern California many years ago I was asked to be
the observer by the ski designer for O'Brien skis while he checked out
the latest sanding of a ski he was creating for the then well known
female skier whose name escapes me now. Commented to his with what
RPMs he wanted for each engine and away we went!




Not sure I understand.




In a back-asswards way he's saying people ski behind twin engine boats.
Or he could be saying one must be a female skier to do so, or a well
known female skier, or one must use different rpms for each engine, or I
dunno. I think...
