It really depends on how big your boat is and how fast you want to go typically you want to go 20-25 while tubing so get a big enough motor to push your boat with a tube 20-25 mph

Can you install a wake tower on to a fish and ski boat with an outboard motor?
Yes you can. You have to know 2 things about your boat: 1. Can you pull someone out of the water with your motor? ( for a 16 ft fiberglass boat you need at the very least 80hp, but a 120 does better) 2. Do you have a place to mount the tower and not have it rip out? There is a lot of pressure on that thing

Does a Johnson 135 outboard motor have enough power to pull a water skier?
It all depends on your boat first and the actual skiers to a lessor degree. If you have smaller ski or fishing boat (19' or shorter), then that is more than enough power to pull whatever or whoever you want to with it. I am 6'1" and stocky in my earlier days, but I have skied behind a 17' bass boat with a 70 hp outboard pretty effortlessly. If your boat is 20' or larger, then it comes down to the weight of your boat, the type of prop you have, etc. and it is less likely that you will be skiing much with that boat/motor combination. **Worse case, try it... You will either pull the skiier up, or not. Remember too that you can change your prop to a power take off prop that will give you more BITE from a dead stop for this situation, but takes a little of your top end speed away.

Can a 50 hp motor pull a skier?
Assume you are talking about a boat and a water skier. Yes it will work. I have been towed by a 35 HP outboard. It depends on the skill of the skier to be able to get up quickly. It also depends on the skis and the drag they cause while being pulled from the water.

How do boats not sink if there is a gravitational pull?
The gravitational pull on the water beneath the boat is greater than the gravitational pull on the boat, so the water is pulled under the boat and lifts it to the surface.
