the smoothest alternative for bridle and ski pole!
- more
performance: better tracking & response, more control, 20HP PLUS
more pull force!
-
safer: more stable and level driving, rope does ot drag into the
water
-
smooth edge to edge: smooth driving, riding, extended
swing range, perfect boat contact
-
universal mounting: 3 models for all outboards 30 to 250 hp
-
practical: useful collision protection, can be trimmed, tilted and
dismounted in seconds
-
environment: better fuel economy thanks to improved overall efficiency
How the TURBOSWING�works
The ski rope pull force and outboard
thrust force, converge in the swivel bracket, the power goes either
into the boat or into the skier. You attach the ski rope to the
EZpulley that runs over the TurboSwing ski bar and around the outboard.
The TurboSwing controls the height and movements of the rope:
the EZpulley smoothly follows the movements of the skier, wake boarder
or towable. The
The TurboSwing features much
improved overall performance of the boat and more neutral handling as
well as more action, safety and comfort for skier and driver.
"Bermuda"transom
bridle, always a hassle ...
The running block is not moving in
a controlled way, it overreacts to the skier, the rope attachment is
troublesome, the bridle often has a sinking steel core, is difficult to
monitor, etc.
The boat driver is (over)reacting
to compensate, resulting in a loss of power of 20HP or even more
When swinging out, the tow ski
rope will chafe the shaft, forcing the focus point backwards and away
from the transom. You will draw the transom towards you, making the boat
veer away from you.
Also, when pulled against the
shaft, the towrope is forcing itself downwards into the wake.
Don΄t waste your energy on a ski
pole!
Ski poles also cause a loss of 20
HP or more, the high point of attachment is causing the boat to dig
itself in and tip, disturbs the balance etc.
Ski boats are built for having a
pylon: they have a flat planing surface at the transom, a 200-350 HP
inboard centrally placed, with the rotation point between the rudder and
inboard: the pylon location.
Outboard powered boats however
have deep-Vs, the heauvy outboard weight on the transom, and the point
of rotation lies in the rotation poiunt of the outboard, where the
thrust is.
A ski pole creates tremendous
leverage problems, tilting and heeling the boat over, causing excessive
drag and loss of forward thrust.
the TURBOSWING�- the (re)solution
The TurboSwing bings the pull
force to the power source, where the thrust is, in the rotation point of
your boat.
The heavier the skier, wakeboarder or towable, and the more one
swings out, the bigger the advantages of the TurboSwing. The TurboSwing
brings the ski rope under control and makes it easier to handle for the
crew. And brings the extra power where it should be: under your control,
right at your hands! The desired course becomes the actual course, not
wasting power, reaching higher RPM, torque and more forward thrust,
bringing in more action, comfort and safety for all.
Assembly: on outboard motor
bracket - universal for all outboards as from 30/40 HP
Using a
mounting clamp on either side of the motor bracket, the clamps are
bolted on the motor bracket, using the same motor bracket bolts. 2 extra
bolts stabilise the clamps. It is not necessary to dismount the
outboard motor for mounting the TurboSwing.
Trimming and tilting
The TurboSwing can be
tilted just like the outboard
motor, thanks to the
pivoting feature of the mounting clamps. The upper and lower position
for skiing or boarding (higher) can be
adjusted based on the planing angle of your boat. For safe tilting, the
TurboSwing can be lifted manually and be kept in position thanks to the
integrated friction discs.
Mounting and dismounting
Simply
place the TurboSwing bracket in the holding sleeves and secure with 2
securing pins. Dismounting, which is recommend for trailering the boat,
is just as easy. The mounting clamps permanently stay in place.
Safe
The ski rope becomes
better visible, is not in the boat, but behind the engine, clearly
visible. The driver can concentrate better on what happens on the water,
thanks to the much improved overall handling of the boat.
Try for yourself, and get attached!
Did
you believe that real water skiing is only for ski boats with inboards?
The TurboSwing will prove you differently: experience, feel and see the
difference!
