Water Sports


Water skiing, along with being towed on a tube, kneeboard or other similar devices, is very popular with boaters. These activities are both fun and challenging. But one has to be familiar with the area. Be aware of any hazards such as shallow water or objects such as rocks or bridge pilings in the water. Water skiing is a very family-oriented activity and it is not restricted to sea only; it can be done in lakes too.

Water-skiing Tips
Water-skiing is an exciting and challenging sport. However, like all "fast-action" sports that are fun, it does possess an element of risk. Many skiers and boaters are not aware of the potential hazards of water-skiing and as a result, are hurt or even killed pursuing this recreational sport. Attention to hazards in the area where you are skiing is especially critical due to the ever growing number of boats out on the water.

The Ski Area
The size of the water area in which you intend to ski determines the number of boats and skiers that can operate within it at the same time. A minimum depth of five to six feet of obstacle-free water is suggested for safe skiing to keep the skis from dragging bottom during starts and allow for a margin of safety against hitting bottom or submerged obstacles during a fall.

Weather
Water Skiing, IndiaAs a rule, avoid skiing when the water is rough due to high winds. Choppy water demands a greater skill level and causes the skier to fatigue more quickly, often because the tow boat cannot maintain a constant sped.

Always have an observer in the boat and never ski after dark. It is hazardous and illegal. Any boat traveling fast enough to tow a skier is traveling too fast to navigate safely at night.
