Between what times is it illegal for vessels to tow a person on water skis, an aquaplane, or any other device?

  1. Between sunset and sunrise

  2. One-half hour after sunset and one-half hour before sunrise

  3. During local festival days

  4. When the water temperature is below 15°C

The correct answer is: One-half hour after sunset and one-half hour before sunrise

It is illegal for vessels to tow a person on water skis, an aquaplane, or any other device between sunset and sunrise. This is because visibility is greatly reduced during these times, increasing the risk of accidents. Option A is incorrect because it does not specify a period of time, while option C is incorrect as it is mentioning local festival days, which have no relation to safety regulations. Option D may sound reasonable, but water temperature does not directly affect the legality of towing activities. Therefore, option B is the most accurate answer.
