need some advise on towing.
buddy just took delivery of his steel 65' expedition fishing yacht.
we've discussed towing my 282 behind his boat and using the 282 as the primary fishing platform while the mothership serves as lodging and kitchen.
we're thinking about taking a week for a trek of about 120-130 nautical miles north from home port to explore and fish Kyoquot sound on the WCVI.
the 65' mothership/expedition boat cruises at 8 knots.
should we attempt to tow the 282 at full cruise speed of 8 knots or go slower?
what kind of set up would be recommended to tow the 282 behind the mothership?
How should the 282 be 'bridled" to best facilitate a safe tow?
thx in advance guys :mrgreen:
