On our latest trip to the USA we were given a wakeboard to bring back with us. What a fun way to get out and enjoy the sea while getting some exercise!
I was worried that our dinghy* would not be able to pull an adult, let alone pull someone while carrying three others. Turns out that our dinghy will pull the heaviest 'boarder (that would be Phillip) while carrying two cheering kids and driver Kelly, no sweat! Pulling up the boys is very easy with only a small amount of power required.
Alexander and Nicholas both tried wakeboarding for the first time today. We are proud to report that they both popped right up and were riding the board right away! Today we were busy driving the boat and giving instruction, we promise photos of the boys riding soon!
Finally, we closed out the day with a sunset ride for Phillip- Alexander filmed with a digital camera and we have uploaded the video. See it here: Wakeboarding behind the dinghy!
We are so happy to be back here and having fun!
* It's not an overpowered dinghy. It's an underpowered towboat!

Wakeboarding is so cool! Man, I'm so envious.
Living vicariously,
