It's a data point. The best control would be pulling the trailer with the jetski on the roof.

But that wasn't the purpose of the exercise.

At the least, I would've put the front skis on the windshield header. To prevent oil-canning the roof and who knows if jetskis generate uplift at freeway speeds.
