The strong NRS Tow Tether, with built-in bungee, is used with the quick-release harnesses on rescue life jackets.

Tow Tether lengths:

• 33": Stretched length is 33", unstretched is 19"
• 53": Stretched length is 53", unstretched is 33"

The Tow Tether, sometimes called a "cow tail," enhances towing boats in rescue situations.

The stainless steel O-ring includes a hook patch of "hook and loop" material that facilitates centering of the O-ring on vests that have the loop material sewn on in the back.

The Tether also has a hook patch on the carabiner end. This mates with a loop piece available on some rescue PFDs, forming a quick-release holder for the carabiner. The NRS Nuq Twist Lock Carabiner prevents accidental snag on brush in the field or with other gear.
