Ski lakes

Are there any ski lakes that allow you to drop your boat in for a blast about ? I have a small runabout i want to have a play on and i dont fancy paying the £2500 fine on the Thames . Thorpe park has a ski lake but i'm not sure if they allow other boats on it and cant seem to find a number to call and ask .

Thanks , that number is not the same as the ski clubs . Would it not be better to try and get a slot in with them rather than hiring the whole lake ?
