Platform Towing
Special care must be taken in any form of towing. In particular, in platform towing,
it is critically important that the nose line be attached so that there is no possibility
of inducing a spontaneous disengagement of the bottom front wires. In particular,
there must be no way that the nose line can pull forward on the nose wires, the nose
tang, or anything attached to either. See the photos below for the correct and
incorrect methods of nose line attachment.
The photo above shows a CORRECT method for attaching a nose line for platform
towing. Note that the line is cinched over the top of the tang, in front of the tang
handle and in front of the wires.
The two photos above both show INCORRECT methods for attaching a nose line.
In the photo on the left, the nose line is routed between the wires, making it likely that the nose line could
push forward on the nose tang, causing it become disconnected. In the photo on the right, the nose line is
outside the V of the wires, but behind the tang handle, which also makes it likely that the nose line could
push forward on the tang, causing it to disconnect. In any platform towing launch, a final check of the
routing of the nose line and the security of the nose tang should be made prior to launching.
