Gentlemen,
Is a tow bar needed to pull tubes with my pontoon boat?

Re: Tow bar or no tow bar

I dont have one on my pontoon. I have two large stainless steel u-bolts that go through the side rail and decking on the rear of my pontoon that I pull from. It will work with a set-up from walmart with two hooks and a pully in the middle that you actually hook the ski rope to. That being said it would be nice to have a two bar. The rider has to lean back on my tube to keep the nose of the tube out of water until the tube gets up on plane. If I had a tow bar it would be easier and probably a better ride for the boat and rider.
