Check that the keyhole tang on the bottom front wires is fully engaged on the collar, and that the
button lock is properly engaged. Check that the keyhole collar is fully secured to the keel, and that the
mounting bolt protrudes at least slightly above the surface of the clinch nut pressed into the collar. If
you are platform towing, and have a nose line attached in this area, check to see that the nose line is
not routed in a manner in which it can apply any forward load against the bottom front wires or the
keyhole tang. (See the information on Towing elsewhere in this manual.)
