Standard Equipment

Watersports Tow Point

The watersports tow-point (pylon) is manufactured from high strength aluminum alloy, engineered for durability. It is “hard coat anodized” and impregnated with a PTFE (teflon) material. If the pylon becomes loose, stop using the pylon and take the boat to your Nautique dealer for service.

!

Misuse of the tow-point can cause death or serious injury. The pylon was designed for water skiing only. DO NOT use for parasailing, kite flying, towing other boats and/or using pylon extensions, sit behind (aft) the pylon when towing skiers.

CAUTION

Although pylon extensions and barefoot booms have become popular additions to many tournament inboards, Correct Craft strongly objects and opposes the use of any pylon extension, whether up or to the side of any of its products. The use of pylon extensions can alter the handling characteristics of the boat, possibly resulting in dangerous instability, which could then lead to loss of control, a situation which could cause serious or fatal injury to the boat driver, passengers, skiers and anyone else who might be in the vicinity of such a mishap.
