A parasailing assembly designed to suspend a rider from a parachute being towed by a boat, the assembly including a rider support structure formed of a rigid yet lightweight and buoyant material and having a front end, a rear end, a pair of oppositely disposed sides, a top side, a bottom side, and a hollow interior, accessible from one of the sides. A reclining seat structure is disposed within the hollow interior and is structured to support at least one rider in a generally reclined position. A pair of straps are further provided and formed of a flexible yet high strength material, with each one of the straps securely yet removably connected to one of the opposite sides of the rider support structure such that when the assembly is disposed in a launched orientation each of the straps is disposed in spaced parallel relation to the other and provides for balance and stable movement of the rider support structure. The movement of the straps is guided and restricted to maximize observation of the rider seated within the rider support structure, and each of the pair of straps is connected near a center region thereof with at least one set of riser lines of a parachute so that upon connection of the parachute riser lines the rider support structure is movable between the launched orientation suspended by the parachute filled with air, and a floating orientation on a surface of water when the parachute is not filled with air.
