PROCEDURES
TOWING THE JET BOAT
➀
➀
Bow eye
The Jet Boat should be towed only if it
becomes inoperative.
The towing rope should be long
enough so that the Jet Boat will not col-
lide with the towing boat when slowing
down. A good rule of thumb is a tow
rope which is three times the combined
length of the towing boat and the Jet
Boat.
Tow the Jet Boat using the bow eye
only. Tow the boat at a "no wake"
speed.
WARNING
The operator of the towing boat
must keep speed to a minimum and
avoid traffic or obstacles which
could be a hazard to the driver on
the Jet Boat.
