Was on the lake yesterday and had a blast with good group of friends...headed back in after time flew by when my buds engine overheat alarm started to scream.

Not good...wrong side of lake. I had made up two heavy lines with snap ring hooks....no sea tow and it was a situation where I needed to tow them in....had my boy jump in and attach the snap rings for each line to my transem tie downs so I could divide the force...tied off to the line from the bow eye on stranded center console...took her up to a little over idle speed and putt putted in across the lake.......temp never budged but was going...

I strongly suggest rigging up some lines like this....it would a been tough to tie off to those stearn eyes under water and this took all of seconds to connect.
