Designed for heavy use in tough conditions, the North Water Dynamic Sea Tow Pro is available with 35 or 50 feet of line. The well-drained pouch unrolls nearly flat for easier stuffing and in-water recovery. Plus, it’s easily modified: from adjusting shock absorption tension to presetting tow length by sliding the foam float down the line and plugging it back in the bag. “Put 10 paddlers in a room and you’ll get 12 opinions on tow systems,” says North Water’s Morgan Goldie. This versatile towline is 12 systems-in-one.
