2017 OWNERS MANUAL / 230
SKI/WAKEBOARD/SURF ROPE
Models
May be purchased from an authorized MasterCraft dealer or
aftermarket retailer.
Purpose
MasterCraft boats are equipped with watersports towing points as
standard equipment, and may also oer other optional pylons and
towers intended to be used to attach rope for skiing, wakeboard-
ing and surfing. Note that tow ropes should never be attached to
anything but the approved transom tow hook, pylon or tower. Care
should also be taken by all on board to pay attention to the tow rope
because it can snap back and hit people on-board when a skier or
wakeboarder lets go of it. Usually, the rope simply skips along the
water surface behind the boat, but it can become airborne, especial-
ly if it was taut prior to release.
Attach ski/wakeboard ropes to approved pylons and towers.
Failure to do so may result in structural failures which could cause
serious injury or death.
Ski/wakeboard tow ropes may snap back into occupied portions of
the boat causing serious injury. Occupants must be vigilant when
towing skiers or wakeboarders.
Location
Attachment locations vary by model. See Guide to Individual Models
section in this Owner’s Manual to determine pylon and tower at-
tachments for each model. MasterCraft recommends stowing rope
when not in use. Feet, arms and bodies can become entangled with
rope left on the deck or seating; rope left loose behind the boat can
become airborne and swing around to strike people on board.
Operation
Failure to properly and securely attach to the tower, pylon or other
MasterCraft designated attachment locations for each model could
result in the rope coming loose. As noted in the above warning,
individuals could be injured if the rope is not secure.
