how to tie a tube & Watersports rope
There are many ways to tie a tube rope or watersports rope to a boat. Our friends at
Barletta Boats made this great instructional video to assist!
​
Tow Ropes can be DANGEROUS!
Never grab the tow rope when tubing or before boat is in motion.
​
If you're the driver, pull any slack out of the tow rope slowly and make sure all hands and bodies are clear from the rope.
​
If you are wake surfing, wakeboarding, skiing or other towable sports. Never place your arm inside of the tow handle. A sudden fall can drag you under water. Towing two tubes is not allowed with rental companies and isn't recommended.
​
Towing a rope behind a waverunner is also not recommened if you are renting a wave runner or jet ski. Many times the driver will suck the rope into the wave runners jet pump causing servere damage and or a long tow back to the dock.

Using the
tube attachment
A simple way is to loop the rope under the tow bar then around the pylon on top of the bar. Never tube from the wake tower on tow boats.
