Exterior Equipment
Heavy Duty Bow Eye (Optional)
The heavy duty towing package includes a heavy
duty bow eye. The eye includes a welded stain-
less steel plate with internal bow reinforcement
and backing plates that distribute the force on
the bow eye to a larger area of the hull than with
the standard bow eye. This option should always
be selected if you intend to tow the boat behind a
larger vessel.
DANGER
TOWING A BOAT BEHIND A LARGER VESSEL REQUIRES
SPECIAL KNOWLEDGE AND SKILL. THE USE OF TOW LINES
OR HARDWARE NOT INTENDED FOR TOWING OR RATED
FOR THE FORCES EXERTED ON EQUIPMENT DURING THE
TOW IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND CAN CAUSE SEVERE
INJURY OR DEATH TO PASSENGERS IF THAT EQUIPMENT
FAILS. NEVER TOW THE BOAT BEHIND A LARGER VESSEL
USING THE STANDARD BOW EYE OR A TOW LINE, HARNESS
OR OTHER EQUIPMENT NOT RATED FOR THE EXPECTED
LOADS EXPERIENCED DURING THE TOW. IF YOU ARE
NOT EXPERIENCED IN TOWING A VESSEL, CONSULT WITH
AN OPERATOR AND A MARINE FACILITY EXPERIENCED
IN TOWING VESSELS FOR HELP SELECTING PROPER
EQUIPMENT AND FOR TRAINING.
