I also wanted to try this, sounds like the kids would have a blast. What is the situation on the ropes, same length, different length? What about safety? Which single person ones do you use?
It will fill it to a great pressure, no top off needed.
Big diameter single line (rated to tow a 4 person towable, with an integrated bungie) out the stern then individual tube lines to each tube. Everything ends up at the exact same length. If I'm doing a skier, etc, they get their own line from the tower, length up to them, but usually same overall length as the tubers. This will not work out well if you are incapable of multi-tasking, there is a lot for the driver to pay attention to. Also, this is not really the time to be whipping people around, you take it easy and just let them make their own fun. Maybe do some easy "S" turns to keep it interesting once in awhile.
Had this for a couple years now -Kids love it!!!, Kids don't fly out often, since they sit in it (unless they try to fall out), tube inside is completely covered (much, much less risk if puncture), floors on both sides inflate seperately - easier on the butts, head rests etc. and when they are done tubing.....hop in one side fill the side with ice and your favorite adult berverage and enjoy.

Thanks. I’ll have to check that out. Hand pump I assume?
12v pump listed on the box.
Its legal and been done for years everyplace I go boating. One local lake limits to one person only on weekends, thats about it.
Fills it perfectly..its all I use, sorry no other way to say it, but it fills it nice and hard. Very compact and battery lasts forever...i have it hanging in my port side storage for easy access.

I third this - works great, is small and cordless so no need to plug into a 12v outlet.Second this! If you get an inflatable, get one of these. It is hands down the best to inflate deflate things and it will do several on one charge. I usually carry a spare battery as well but never end up needing it. My buddy inflates his 16' zodiac with it and it does that thing in less than 3 minutes! Might be the best thing Ryobi makes!
