area such useful additional items as:
• Extra lug nuts;
• Wheel chocks (especially important in areas in which
there are hilly or mountainous driving conditions);
• Wheel bearing grease;
• Marine grade grease;
• Spare tie-down straps;
• Additional brake fluid for the actuator;
• A torque wrench to check and ensure the lug nuts are
properly torqued;
• Road flares.
Pre-Tow Check List
• Verify the coupler, hitch, and hitch ball are the correct,
specified size and fit.
• Be certain the safety cables and breakaway cable are
correctly attached.
• Check that tie-downs and the winch strap are secure.
• The wheel lug nuts are properly torqued.
• The tires are inflated to the air pressure level stamped on
the sidewall.
• The trailer lights are operating properly.
• The brakes are functioning as designed.
• If the boat is equipped with a tower, it must be either
upright and locked, or lowered and secured. If the tower
is upright, you will need to determine that the total height
of boat, trailer, and tower will be able to clear power lines,
bridges, overpasses, or any other impediment.
• The total load does not exceed the GVWR.
Underway
Towing is more challenging than driving down the road in a

before undertaking a genuine tow to a body of water for an
outing.
Malibu cannot anticipate every possibility that will
arise and assumes no responsibility for the operation of
your tow vehicle and/or trailer, but the following are some
recommendations that can enhance the towing experience
and better prepare drivers:
Drive sensibly.
You will have a substantially greater length and
weight to maneuver. This means you need more time and space
to accelerate or to stop. Weather conditions are amplified. Wind
especially can create more challenges in maintaining control.
Use those mirrors.
Most tow vehicle manufacturers
recommend adding oversized mirrors. Some legal jurisdictions
require it. Regardless, the better you are able to see, the more
control over the total rig you’ll have. Larger mirrors can also
assist you in keeping an eye on the trailer and boat to be aware
of how well they are moving down the road.
Allow extra room when making turns.
You will quickly learn
that turns, especially right turns, take more space. You’ve seen
this with tractor-trailer units and other tow vehicles.
Think twice and allow extra room when passing other
vehicles.
It will take longer to accelerate to passing speed, and
