It doesn't make any wake. The great part about wake boarding is riding the wake, and your jet boat is so light it just planes on the surface. I also think you'd have problems with a tower because it will make you too top heavy. The boat doesn't have that much beam, and if you move the center of gravity that much higher with a tower it will only become more unstable. It would pull just fine going straight ahead, but when you turned you'd come close to capsizing the boat if you had a big rider behind it. I don't think what your calling a tower in the picture is designed for pulling skiers or wake boarders. The shape of the tower is wrong. They'd using different bracing in the stern if it was designed for pulling. I think what your calling a tower is only there as a grab rail to help people keep their balance and not fall out of the boat.<br><b>References : </b><br>http://thunderjet.com/boat-inboard_alexis_classic_21.html# I find it hard to believe that you’ve had good luck wake boarding behind this jet boat.
