Looks like fun but I bet the liability insurance would cost more than the boat.

They built one here in Chattanooga at the boat launch we use about a month ago. The next weekend they were letting people on for free so we took the kids over. They had a good time. No waivers signed. I thought it was risky in their part.

I wonder if they'll sign a contract guaranteeing the claimed $5000/day in rental revenue... Ahahahaha.
All that says is... F'ers expensive!
And yes, I can't imagine the liability issues with that, sadly.

$63,700 all in apparently? And they take great pains to say it's yours so no need for the lawyers to call them!
Still, I can think of a few places I've seen where this would be a perfect addition (you know, the guy on the lake with three or four skis, there or four boats, and a house to match...)

Looks like a lot of fun. Quite sure I would not want to be the lifeguard on that, however.
I can see it doing well offshore where there is less concern about liability. Caribbean, maybe?
