Thanks to Forked up for the ski tow for the BBC. If you see my build up page on my sig. I have a mount that I made to mount the puke tank. Well now I want to mount the ski tow and the puke tank mount is in the way. I am trying to figure out a way to mount the puke tank on the ski tow. I have some ideas but am looking for suggestions. I am not cutting the ski tow and welding it back together either. I will cut the mounts off the alum. tank and weld back on what ever clamping system I decide to attach it to the ski tow.
Thanks.

Is there a reason you can't use a through transom tow? They don't make an engine tow for me, so I used one of these.

Speedy,
There is no room. The transome housing is in the way, plus I do not want any more holes in the boat than I have to.
Thanks.

Hey Speedy, What does the back side of that look like and where did you get it? Greg

Here you go. This is mine. As you can see it will be in the way of my ski tow. I think I found an idea which won't take much work. I will cut off the bracket I made on the tank and then use line seperators from Billet Specialties. The B.S. hose seperators will mount to the ski tow and then I will have to TIG some .500" round stock to the tank. I will post pics when I get to it.
Thanks.
