Check the applicable laws and regula-
tions in your area concerning towing a
trailer, especially the following rules:
– brake system
– tow vehicle weight
– mirrors.
Take the following precautions when
towing the watercraft:
Tie the watercraft to both bow and stern
(front/rear) eyelets so that it is firmly
retained on the trailer. Use additional
tie-downs if necessary.
CAUTION:
Do not route ropes or tie-
downs over the seat as they could
produce permanent damage. Wrap
ropes or tie-downs with rags or sim-
ilar protectors where they can touch
the
watercraft
body.
Ensure all storage compartment cov-
ers and seat are properly latched.
