A ski rack for supporting water skis in a position outboard one side of a water ski tow boat. A pair of support members are held in sockets which can be clamped to portions of the hull of the boat on the inboard side of the gunwale. Arms which are part of the support members extend at a downward slope outside the hull of the boat, and pairs of fingers which are coated with a protective plastic layer extend upwardly generally vertically from the arms, to hold water skis securely between the fingers, out of the way of passengers in the boat and out of the line of sight between the operator of the boat and a water skier being towed.
