    Hello all,
    I have recently heard alot about people waterskiing behind a catamaran. In my extensive research, I have found alot of talk of sailors accomplishing this feat, but only a handful of photo/video evidence proving this to be true. Obviously, it CAN happen. My question is, what is the procedure for doing this? Please explain every aspect- rigging a tow cable, getting the skier out of the water, etc.

    I have a 1984 SuperCat 19 that's in great shape and hits speeds that I am convinced can pull a skier rather easily, along with many skilled waterskiing friends that claim they can do it.

    Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Aaron- SC 19
