jeffb5.8 Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Hi All i have a Kayak and wanted to know if I tie it to the back of my boat (No gear or people on it) can I tow it up the Parra river to Clifton gardens to then let the kids use it around the bay.

tryhard Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 I am not aware of why you wouldn't be able to. Word of warning though.... At any sort of speed, the kayak is likely to overturn, whilst not a serious problem if there is no one and no equipment in it, it can be a pain in the neck! And make sure you don't reverse over the tow rope ..... Bring the kayak to the side of your boat before reversing. Otherwise you may have a less than fun day! Not that I have ever made such a silly mistake..... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
