Hello all, this is my first post here and I’m just curious if my motor is too small to tow a wakeboard or double person tube. I have a 17’ Lowe Roughneck center console with a Yamaha 90/65 jet drive on it. It may not be enough power but I figured I would throw the question on here before giving it a try.

It will carry enough speed but your issue may be getting someone up & out of the water wakeboarding depending on their size.
