- Very charming and relaxed video of GALA Atlantis A300 with 15HP engine, used for wakeboarding. Have a look at how easily this aluminum hull inflatable boat with GALA-TABS gets on plane and nicely performs just with 15HP engine.
Video is presented to us by Mr Samy Arling, Finland, and he received it as a gift from the happy GALA Customer!

I love this video a number of reasons:
1) wow, an inflatable boat with 15 horsepower and the wakeboarder looks like he's having a great time.
2) when I grew up wakeboarding was something little kids who couldn't water ski did. You just stood on the board with both feet facing forward and nowhere near as fun as water skiing. But today's wakeboards are like snowboarding with your feet pointed to the side, again it looks like so much more fun. I imagine if I had a choice I might even choose it over Slalom water skiing.
3) Last but not least, the wider wakeboard has huge advantages for use with a lower horsepower setup. A narrow Slalom ski can be very difficult to pull out of the water without a powerful engine, and you will really slow down the boat with deep carves on that narrow ski if you ever manage to get started. I love how this video shows how relatively easy a wake board can pop out of the water with a sideways start. And the wider board in general means less drag when turning and to pull the rider along.
Very nice video, beautifully shot, and quite enlightening, thanks!
I know this is an old video but to the person wondering where the rope is attached, I have heard it is smartest to avoid stressing the transom and Instead try and thread the rope through both sides of the grab rails.
If you had an rib or an sib with an aluminum floor, I suppose you could try and mount a skipole to the floor but I think it would just get in the way on a smaller boat and not be worth the trouble. It's also better to transfer the stress to the tubes, at least according to one major inflatable boat manufacturer.
Can’t believe they can ski like this off such a small engine and boat !
Where is it in Finland? It‘s so beautiful!
Video was shot in Helsingholm, a small island on the South West corner of Finland, in the Archipelago Sea. Search for 'Helsingholmen' in Google Maps and it will show up. A beautiful place.

Camping Bastard probably to the engine mounts.
