Best Answer

You can water ski behind anything that can pull you across the water fast enough for the skis to begin to skim across the surface.

A cruise ship would be difficult, since they don't accelerate very fast, and might leave a difficult wake.

But as long as they're fast enough, it's possible.

It's been tried in the TV show Mythbusters, and it didn't take that many attempts before they got it right. They hung a tow line from the cruise ship, then used a regular powerboat to get the skier going, and then the skier transferred to the line from the Cruise ship.

In theory, yes, because it would move quickly enough through the water. I'm sure that that would make for a great film clip.

However in the US, the answer would be no, because the US Coast Guard has determined that this activity constitutes "swimming from an unanchored watercraft."
