Tow Rope Bar?

Hey all!

We've really been enjoying our toon. This weekend was the first attempt at tubing behind it and I found a slight hiccup. I'm towing the tube with the u bolts on near the IO. It works okay but the line goes into the wake and creates drag. So I am unable to get the tube riders out of the wake on turns to get a good whip going.

I'm wondering if anyone knows what I could buy to get the rope out off the back of the boat and higher in the air. We have the triple toon with the I/O on it. Any suggestions?

Also - has anyone had any experience with the "Booster Ball?" It's a small inflatable that goes between the boat and the towable that is supposed to keep the line out of the water.

how about a ski tow bar?

Glad your having fun but without pics we don't believe you.
