Can my car pull a jet-ski?
-
I have a 2006 kia Rio and i was wondering if my car has enough power to be able to pull a jet-ski, and down the ramp into the water? I know it couldn't pull a boat, but a jet-ski isnt nearly as heavy

Answer:
Check the cars owners manual and see what its towing capacity is. The ski is about 1000lbs or less, depending on what you have. Then see if you can get a hitch put on the car.

Down the ramp-make sure you firmly apply your parking brake before you put the car in park. Up the ramp-put the car in drive and apply enough gas that you can feel it start to pull a little before letting off the parking brake.

i would ask someone like uhaul that installs trailer hitches on vehicles. they would be able to tell you if there is even a trailer hitch for that vehicle and what the safe rating would be. the manufacturer of the trailer hitch isn't going to overrate their product. i don't think they would want the liability

Sure. It's the pulling the boat out that's the tough part. I saw an old Mercedes SL500 pulling a 15' aluminum boat at the launch the other day. It was strange to see, but he ha no problems.

I have a Jet Ski and a Boat and I have never pulled either one of them down the ramp into the water. I have pulled them up the ramp and out of the water.
