Why is it more difficult to pull a boat on the beach than on the sea?
because the sand is harder and water is very smooth and just sort of molds to a shape so it slips around the boat easily Edit: Because the sand causes friction. So it slows down the boat. Water in the sea has MUCH less friction, that is why the boat just races along in 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.

What are the physics of water skiing?
let the boat pull you up and onto the water do not try to pull with your arms
What is the suggested HP to pull a water skiier out of the water?
This question depends on the type of boat you have. Normally as long as your boat can do around 25+ mph you should be able to pull a skier out of the water. So if you have a 18ft boat with a 115hp depending on the weight of the boat you will be able to tow a skier out of the water.

Why is it easier to pull a submerged boat anchor to the surface than it is to lift onto the boat?
because the water pressure takes up some of the weight as you lift it in the water
How do you get up when water skiing?
The best way to get up on two skis is just to sit back in the water and let the boat pull you up. First what you do is you get in the water, then with your skies already adjusted to the right size put them on while floating. Once you have them on have them vertical in the water and put the rope inbetween the skie. When the rope is tight the boat will accelerate and just let it pull you up. Do not get up too early. If you do, the boat will not have enough speed and you will fall forward. Don't look down, always be looking just above the boat.
Can you park an inboard ski boat on the beach?
Yes. Just be aware of how deep the water is. Pick a spot. Pull up slow. Put into neautral. If your in drive and the water level is low your prop could grab sending you right or left and possibly damaging your drive shaft or prop.
