ABSTRACT:
A water ski tow handle assembly comprising a handle and a pair of end caps is disclosed. The handle defines first and second handle rope passageways extending transversely through each end of the handle at an angle to each other. The first handle rope passageway is in a spaced apart relationship to the second handle rope passageway and the end of the handle. The second handle rope passageway is in a spaced apart relationship to the first handle rope passageway and adjacent the end of the handle. The end caps matingly receiving an end of the handle. Each end cap has a finger protector sleeve and a cap portion. The cap portion includes a collar and a plug which define a recess for matingly receiving the end of the handle. The finger protector sleeve and the cap portion define a first end cap rope passageway extending longitudinally through the finger protector sleeve and the cap portion. The end cap defines a second end cap rope passageway extending transversely through the cap portion. The second end cap rope passageway is in a spaced apart relationship to the first end cap rope passageway. The end cap defines a third end cap rope passageway extending at an acute angle between the first end cap rope passageway and the second end cap rope passageway. The third end cap rope passageway connects the first end cap rope passageway to the second end cap rope passageway. Each end cap is positioned on the handle such that the first handle rope passageway and the first end cap rope passageway are in coaxial alignment and the second handle rope passageway and the second end cap rope passageway are in coaxial alignment.
