                        Towing the boat
                             WARNING
                         The  operator of the  towing boat must
                          keep  speed to a minimum  and avoid
                          traffic or obstacles which could be  a
                          hazard to either boat.
                         The towing line should be long enough
                          so the towed boat will not collide with
                          the towing boat when slowing down.

                        The boat should be towed only if it becomes
                        inoperative.
                        The towing rope should be long enough so
                        that the boat will not collide with the towing
                        boat when slowing  down. A good rule of
                        thumb is a tow rope which is three times the
                        combined length of the towing boat and the
                        boat.
