Otter boat questions


Recommended Posts

When running the extra keel do you have to change the length of the tow line to get it to pull harder.... I have mine at the same length big jon says to put it at for the single keel, it pulls good but iv seen others track better, thanks

I understand. IMO the tow line that you use has just as much affect on the board it is pulling. I use braid for my tow lines. Its doesnt absorb water, it has a small diameter, and has very little stretch. The ultimate set up is double keel with power pro tow line. The knot configuration is 9" and 14". Test it first before you finalize. An adjustment of 1/4" changes a lot.
