ABSTRACT:
The disclosure is a non-rotating ski-rope retriever having a reel-like drum molded of a tough and preferably smooth flexible plastic material. The drum is easily removable from a support adapted for semi-permanent attachment to the transom and/or the rear deck of a motor-boat, and is swingable from a vertical-axis position for easy manual winding-up of the ski rope to a paying-out position in which the axis is generally horizontally disposed but preferably with a downward and rearward inclination to lessen friction as the rope slides over the top edge of the drum. If the drum is made of flexible plastic material its rear flange will also flex to further reduce the friction as needed.
