    No such thing as an overbuilt tow rig, good setup.

    Nice work, nice vid . . One for the suggestion box - Give a couple of witches hats (inside each other facing base forward) on the line in front of your tyre drouge. . . .

    Thanks and interesting you say that because I met a captain in Hamilton island last year who recognized me and showed me his witches hat drogue. It will feature in an upcoming video I’m yet to edit so stay tuned! Cheers

    looks like you could use a towing winch

    Towing in those conditions,perhaps you should of dropped the motor leg down to help stop the yawing ,I've done it heaps of times, it definitely helps IMO

    I know what you mean but Mercury doesn’t recommend that. That’s why we use the old tyres as a drogue off the stern on the Whaler. Thanks for watching 👍
