Abstract

The invention concerns a device that prohibits that major damage comes about when the tow line of the water skier becomes entangled in the propeller of the outboard engine of the towing boat . The invention concerns a safeguarding for the tow line attachment with a semi circular bracket to which the tow line is attached with a pulley. The invention comprises a bracket (3) which can tilt downward where by means of a mechanical connection the safety pin (8) on the outboard engine is pulled loose so that the ignition of the engine is being interrupted.
