Tubing accidents are far too often caused by grossly excessive speed.

RAVE says right on their website boat speed should not exceed 20 MPH https://www.ravesports.com/blogs/lif...before-you-tow

I dont think I have ever seen anyone tow under 30 MPH. Most modern boats are not even on a clean plane until over 25 MPH. And I have never seen anyone plowing while towing a tube.

Its truly frighting to see someone towing little kids at like 35 then cut a hard turn and send them flying across the lake,,,

Hope it turns out ok for all of them :-(
