ABSTRACT:
A lightweight plastic or metal lockable water ski rack is provided for use in pairs designed to be either removably or permanently attached to a boat. The water ski rack is a two-piece flattened substantially rectangular structure with slots for two water skis and a tow rope. A lower framed panel as a supporting base of each rack is bracketed to the ski boat and a hinged upper framed panel locks down and retains the skis. Ski slots in the lower framed panel are lined with a protective material and slots in the upper panel are fronted with an elastic retainer band. When the upper framed panel is closed down on the lower framed panel with skis in the slots, the elastic retainer band expands into the upper slots and retains the skis in a manner to prevent rattling. Provisions are included for the two closed panels to be locked together by a padlock.
