The O'Brien Barca 3 is designed for up to three riders simultaneously. Its generous diameter of approximately 175 cm provides ample space for three adults to ride comfortably, making it ideal for group fun during charter excursions or owner cruises.

What tow speed is recommended for the Barca 3?

O'Brien recommends tow speeds between 15 and 30 km/h depending on rider experience and water conditions.

The Barca 3 features two separate tow point locations. One allows for a face-forward, chariot-style ride where riders lie on their stomachs for maximum excitement.
