anyone tow a seadoo with their spyder?

[groundeffect]

Towing a Sea-Doo is one thing, but 'retrieving' and pulling a Sea-Doo up from a slimy launch ramp is another. Not a good idea.

Not saying you can't...Just saying it would be very, very low on my list of 'possibly good ideas'. If you plan on doing so, please be VERY aware of your stopping distance increase, and acceleration time.

MrLoney, you have best idea. If you build you own trailer with an electric braking system, you would have a hand brake on your :spyder2: that you could use to stop the whole outfit and use the Spyder brakes only sparingly. I have driven a straight 5-ton truck years ago that was pulling a trailer with a small, tracked, front end loader. It had an electric-brakes, and if the pavement was wet, I would use the trailer brake to slow down or stop, thus avoiding jackknifing. Doug I

Saw a Spyder towing a jet ski this past weekend. It was a small one but he was booking it down the highway.

Wow that sure beats the 17' speed boat that I followed being towed by a Gold Wing!
