9. Deployment / Installation
Two towing ropes should be secured to the catamaran using two stainless shackles on the two
points. The towropes can provide a degree of steerage by adjusting the tension on each rope.
The HV Cable Grip should be connected to the tow points and adjusted so that in case of
tow rope failure no load is applied to the electrical connections or cable clamp.
A quick sea trial should be undertaken to check the floatation / towing characteristics of the
catamaran underway at roughly 3-5 Knots.
NOTE:
No stress should be applied to the electrical connections whilst the unit is
undertow as this may cause failure during operation.
