Attaching To Your PFD
Release the quick release buckle on your PFD; remove the free end of the belt from the belt loops so it can be threaded through the 2 inch D-ring, this will position it at the back of the PFD. Re-thread the belt through the belt loops and secure the buckle. Now take the end of the Sea Link and attach the paddle carabiner to the front of the PFD so it can be accessed when needed.
Using The Tow Line
Unclip the carabiner from the front of your PFD and clip it to the grab-loop or the security loop of the boat that you plan to tow. You will then be towing from a 4.5 foot line.
If you require a longer line unclip the side release buckle on the pouch. The line will thread out of the pouch as you paddle forward giving you a towing length of 15 feet.
Releasing The Tow
In the event you need to disengage from the rescue quickly, simply release the quick release buckle on the PFD. The pressure of the tow will unthread the belt through the loops releasing the 2 inch D-ring and the tow.
Re-packing The Bag
After a rescue, once you are in calm conditions or on shore you can re-stuff the bag by simply stuffing the webbing into the bag and clip the carabiner to the front of your PFD. If you have disconnected the Sea Link from the belt, re-thread the belt through the D-ring as indicated above.
