Ive been told not to do that. Passing boater or jet ski could run over it and drag you along.
I use a cheap plastic line reel from Home Depot that I clip to my harness so it is hands free. If a boat takes the line the reel will just breakaway rather then taking me along with it.
Statisically, this event is so rare or non-existent that NEVER is an accurate description of the odds of it happening.
Remember the movie First Blood, when Stalone was being dragged by the airplane. It's something like that, right? So if it happens, you already know how to handle it...
