An offset wake surf tow system designed to enhance the experience of wakesurfing behind watercraft. It consists of ropes and hardware assembled into attachment, adjustment, and grasping sections. The tow system is designed to stay in the water while riders are surfing and attaches to the watercraft, offset to the side of the rider, so that the rider may elect to grasp or drop the tow system multiple times without interference or entanglement. The offset and vertical attachment of the tow system, length adjustment, and interaction with the watercraft wake combine to achieve the desired lateral and vertical positioning of the system to remain close enough for the rider to reach, and, out of the rider's way when not in use. The tow system also provides a line to grasp for the surfer to start from still in the water and, due to the offset attachment, assists with rider pick-up.

A water sports tow system designed to enhance the experience of wake surfing behind watercraft. It consists of rope(s) assembled into a grasping section and attachment/adjustment section. The tow system is designed to stay in the water while riders are surfing and attaches to the boat, offset to the side of the surfer/rider, so that the surfer may elect to grasp or drop the rope multiple times without interference or entanglement. The attachment method begins at the normal rope pylon on the wake boat tower, then offset is achieved by routing the rope to the side of the tower before extending aft to the surfer. The offset attachment, and length adjustment of the tow system combine to achieve the desired lateral offset for the rope to remain close enough for the rider to reach but out of the rider's way when not in use. The tow system also provides a line to grasp for the surfer to start from still in the water.

A multipurpose watercraft has a pair of catamaran pontoons supported by way of a transverse control bar at forward regions thereof. The watercraft may have an arched equipment rack framework extending above rearward regions of the pontoons. The watercraft also has a pair of electric motor thrusters located respectively beneath each pontoon and the control bar comprises a pair of controls operable by hand, each control operable to control a respective thruster forwards or backwards. Alternatively, the thrusters may be remotely controlled. This configuration allows an operator to be pulled behind the control bar horizontally between the pontoons, snorkellers to be pulled behind the watercraft for recreational sightseeing and/or for remote-control rescue operations.

A watersport support system includes a flotation vest having a back surface, a front surface and side surfaces. At least one adjustment belt is positioned horizontally around the main body of the vest. A pair of tethers engage the adjustment belt along both sides of the vest, and a pair of handle gripping devices are removably connected to the end of the pair of tethers. Each of the handle gripping devices includes an elongated strap that terminates into a malleable curved gripper body, and a hand strap is positioned adjacent to each gripper body. As the user squeezes the gripper body and the tow handle, the pulling force from the handle is transferred from the user's arms to the pair of tethers and the adjustment strap that loops around the back of the user's torso. When the user releases the gripper body, the body disengages the handle.

A flexible, no through hole, loop handle is disclosed for a watercraft. The customary loop handle through hole is completely closed by a particular, sturdy, flexible, stretchy, mesh, or other puncture resistant, water suited and water permeable fabric. The handle grip portion is a fabric tube enclosing a squeezable foam segment that enables a user to obtain a complete finger overlapped with thumb wrapped grip on the handle. The closed through hole eliminates the risk of a user's hand or other limb segment being intentionally or inadvertently extended through the handle. The mesh fabric is sufficiently flexible to allow a full finger wrapped grip around the fabric tube of the handle such that no aspect of user grip is compromised by virtue of the mesh fabric.
