A towing device for a rider on a body of water comprises a buoyant platform having at least one electric motor and a prop. A container fixed with the towing device contains a controller to power each electric motor. A wireless remote control sends wireless commands to the controller. A tow rope is fixed with the buoyant platform proximate the rear end. As such, with the rider holding the wireless remote control and engaged with a distal end of the two rope, commands from the wireless remote control are sent to the controller to control power to each electric motor. Preferably the towing device further includes a pivotable rudder that is disposed behind the prop, or a steering nozzle, and the wireless remote control has a steering control to send steering signals to the controller. Various modes of operation of the towing device are disclosed.
