Does anyone know the capacity of the ski tow on the 1998 Horizon 200? Just curious if I will be ok to pull a two person tube with it? Some people have recommended using the two ubolts at the stern of the boat. Any advice on this? |

I've used two tubes for 5 years on my 18' maxum, as well as the new boat for a full season. Never had any issues just using the normal tow loop. I did check about once per season to make sure the bolts were tight (found 'em loose once). |

Pulling behind my '98, I hope this answers your question:  Other than burning $4.50/gallon gas faster than if you were to light it on fire, it pulled fine. |

we would ski 4 and tube 4 behind my dad's previous 1988 205 Sundowner on the ski ring with no issues... except rope burn from jumping tubes over one another and attempting physically take each other out

Looks like you got your answer, but I've had 3 tubes behind my boat many times. Had 2 skiers up at once few times too. And that's with just a little ol 4.3L |
