keep speed to a minimum and avoid traf-

the towing boat when slowing down.
If the watercraft becomes inoperative in the

When the watercraft is towed using a towline,
the operator should hold onto the handlebars
and ride the watercraft in order to balance it.
Use a towline that is three times the combined
length of the towing boat and the watercraft.
1 Bow eye
Tow the watercraft at 5 mph (8 km/h) or less.
The bow must be kept up out of the water dur-
ing towing to prevent water from entering the
engine compartment.
