Default Dinghy-Tow

The directions for install are pretty straight forward. Depending on
conditions, most of the time you can leave the outboard on the dink. It will
be hauled out of the water and next to the stern. Not having to haul it on
and off the dink is nice. You can also put the engine on and off while
standing on the stern. For a small boat, like a Dana, I'd think this would
be a good performance boost. On my J/37 it makes a lot of difference in
speed between straight towing and using the dinghy-tow.

We saw the Dinghy-Tow at a boat show last year and it looked like a great
concept. Ww down sized to a Dana 24 sailboat but have a 9' Caribe
inflatable with a 9.8 engine. We really do not want to have less of a
dinghy. This year we plan to tow it to see how much drag there is and if

it
is more than expected then we thought we would try the Dinghy-Tow.

Any suggestions or recommendations on using, setting up etc.

Jerry
