Fixing tire behind boat, how do I do it?
Whether you have a tire behind the speedboat or sloop want to fix, it is important that you pay attention to a number of things here . For example, the rope, with which you attach the strap to the boat, must meet the right quality requirements. Take a look at our web shop and find a quality funtube rope.
Next attach the rope to the towing pole or towing eye of the boat and to the strap behind the boat. Keep in mind that the rope should not get too close to the boat propeller to avoid damage to both the tire and the motor. Does the rope still get too close? Then a bridle may be the perfect solution.
Are there any rules for a band behind the boat?
If you want to go boating with a tire for behind the boat, there are rules for this. For example, the driver of the boat at least 18 years old be old and be in possession of a boating license. In addition, one person should also stay behind on the boat to keep an eye on the band. This person should then at least 15 years to be old.
With a fast motorboat you will soon be sailing faster than 20 km/h and on the water this feels even faster. So you may only go fast in the designated fast boating areas.
So pay close attention to this if you are stringing a tire behind the boat and want to make speed. After all, fines on the water can quickly reach over a thousand euros, and of course no one wants that.
What do you need to consider?
In addition to there being certain rules for a tire behind the boat, there are a number of things to consider. These mainly revolve around safety measures to prevent accidents from happening. First of all, it is important that you never sit on the belt behind the boat with more people than there are seats available. This is because you will then not be able to hold on to the strap properly, guaranteeing a fall into the water.
We can tell you that falling into the water at high speed is not always a fun experience, especially when you already can't sit up properly on the tire.
In addition, we recommend that everyone take a life jacket to put on If you sit on a tire in front behind the boat. In 9 out of 10 cases, at least one person is the victim and will most likely fall off the tire. In that case, you are only too glad that you have a life jacket on, because it may be some time before the boat has come to pick you up again.
