Water-skiiing …
Family sporting interest
Engaging us all – together.
Enjoyment increases along with skills.
We’ve all “dropped a ski”.*
And a new boat is delivered
Inboard motor,
No propellor,
Water sucked up from below,
Pushed out back for propulsion.
Jet Boat.
We don’t name it, just work it –
Weekend after weekend.
Note:
* “Drop a ski” – the transition from skiing on 2 skis to using only a single ski. Basically you start on 2 skis with one of them quite loose, once you have your balance you lift your foot out of the “loose” ski and place it in the foothold at the rear of the other ski … and a ski has been dropped.
