keep speed to a minimum and avoid
traffic or obstacles which could be a
hazard to the operator on the water-
craft.
The towline should be long enough so
that the watercraft will not collide with
the towing boat when slowing down.
If the watercraft becomes inoperative in the
water, it can be towed to shore.

bined length of the towing boat and the wa-
tercraft.

rope hole of the watercraft being towed.

weight supported on the riding tray. Hold
on to the handlebars in order to balance
the watercraft and keep the bow up out
of the water. NOTICE: The bow must be
kept up out of the water during tow-
ing, otherwise water could flood the
engine compartment or water could
flow back into the engine, causing se-
vere engine damage.

Tow the watercraft at 8 km/h (5 mph) or less.
NOTICE: Tow the watercraft at 8 km/h (5
