215 T-Top Strength

I just purchased a 2006, 215 that should be here in about 2 weeks. I was talking to a dealer that was trying to sell me a 05 and he claimed that he uses the T-top on his 2005 to tow wakeboarders. The T-tops on the 2006 are quite a bit stronger, so I am curious if that is actually possible or if he was just blowing smoke. If not, I will probably just use a bridle and tow from the rear hooks. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Bob

if you have the money to purchase an '06 don't look back and enjoy all the
improvements the 06 has to offer esp. the nicer t-top.

welcome to the group

Congratulations on the new boat! I would not be comfortable towing off the t-top, but that is just me. I always tow the kids off the rear cleat on the back of the boat.

I agree. Towing off a T-Top just doesn't sound like a good ideal.

I would stay away from using the t-top for towing. The rear left foot plate on my top has a broken weld from banging around in the ocean. I have to remove my t top to have it welded. It is not a fun job. These tops are not designed for that kind of stress. The new tops are made of heavier metal and should be stronger, but still not a good idea for towing anything.
