Airhead 1-6 Rider Tow Rope for Towable Tubes, 60 ft, 6,000 lb Break Strength, Yellow
The Airhead AHTR-6000 Tow Rope is a heavy-duty towline built for pulling large boat towables with confidence. Measuring 60 feet long, it is rated for 1 to 6 riders and carries a break strength of 6,000 pounds, making it one of the strongest tow ropes in the Airhead lineup. The rope is constructed from durable, UV resistant 16 strand polypropylene designed to withstand repeated use in sun, spray, and rough water conditions. Its bright yellow color keeps the line easy to spot in the water and in low-visibility conditions such as dawn or dusk, helping the boat driver and observer keep track of the line and rider at all times. The rope features a snap closure for quick attachment and comes with a Rope Keeper included, so the rope can be neatly coiled and stored between rides instead of tangling in the boat. Built as a single section line, this tow rope is highly compatible with popular multi-rider towable tubes and is equally suited to general boat towing tasks. Whether pulling a large group tube behind a ski boat or pontoon, this rope is sized and rated to handle the load safely across a full day on the water.
