I seem to recall that FW advises that the factory ski-eye is not rated for parasailing. I believe this is true of the ski-eye on the factory arch as well. You may need to look into an after market mount strong enough to parasail with. I just got back from vacationing in Cancun. While there, I saw some unique parasailing setups. One had an arch that was about midline of the boat, and the boat was of sufficient length that they could launch and retrieve parasailors from a swim platform by winch. Another group had a side by side style floating tube like canopy that would 'tube' behind the boat until the parasail generated enough lift, and would come back to a float at the end of the ride. Most traditional parasailing configurations call for a downwind beach for launching and landing. |
