ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a detachable tow bar assembly for use in towing a small boat from campsite to water and return, and involves a pair of bow engageable elements, each adapted to straddle the foremost edge of the bow of such boat, such bow engageable elements being supported in spaced relationship to engage such bow at spaced locations thereon. The supporting apparatus involves a pair of angularly related solid bars, rigidly connected at one end, with each bar hingedly supporting one of the bow engageable elements. The bow engageable elements may be held in pressure engagement against the bow by a turnbuckle anchored at end to one of the rigid bars in proximity to the apex of the angle form between them, while at its other end, the turnbuckle is provided with a hook or similar devices to engage an eye or clevis affixed to the bow of the boat at a location intermediate the position of engagement of the bow by the bow engageable elements. A short draw bar for attachment to the hitch of a camper or the like, is adjustably mounted on one of the rigid bars.
