fuel tank, and equipment.
A towing bridle is necessary in order to properly tow your boat.
Towing bridles are available for purchase on Coastal's web site.
Do not tow the inflatable boat by connecting rope to the central stainless steel lifting
handle. Use towing D-rings on both sides of the dinghy bow.
Following the instructions on the towing bridle. Run a line from the larger boat through the ring on the
towing bridle back to the larger boat. This allows the bridle to slide on the rope doing the towing.
Tow the boat at slow speed.
The inflatable must be under constant supervision when it is being towed.
Make sure there is no water in the boat. Excess water in the boat can quickly lead to failure of the towing
rings, especially when the load is not being equalized. Even just six inches of water in an inflatable can
weight hundreds of pounds to the boat.
If one of the air chambers should accidentally deflate while you are operating the boat, shift the weight to the
