Got a Question?
The TurboSwing has a tow rating of 600 pounds dry weight. We have already factored in the drag when considering this.
No, you would not have to reinforce your hull. The TurboSwing will be mounted on the transom; it is the strongest structure of the boat. The TurboSwing holders fit exactly on the motor bracket and will be, together with the motor, mounted on the transom using the same bolts. The holders are universal, therefore the holes in the holders match the holes in the motor bracket. All motors have the same brackets. The main bolts at the top of the motor bracket that are already present will be used. For reasons of stabilization, on both sides a 2nd hole will be drilled and a 2nd stabilization bolt installed in one of the 4 or 5 pre-drilled bolt holes. Always leave a minimum of 1, but preferably 2 holes between the main bolt and the stabilization bolt. Otherwise, no drilling or sawing is required at places that are unsuitable and that could weaken the structure of the boat. Reinforcement with epoxy and/or other structural reinforcement is unnecessary.
Yes, the turboswing will come with one pulley. Additional pulley's can be purchased if you wish to pull multiple tubes.
Installation takes roughly an hour, depending on your skill level. It is very easy and most people will be able to do it on their own.
The TurboSwing comes with two extra motor bracket bolts that can be used to mount the TurboSwing directly to the transom if it is not possible to use the motor bracket or if you do not wish to mount it using the motor bracket.

Yes! We have had success when installing a TurboSwing with jack platesbefore. When installing with a jack plate it actually makes it easier to install. You won't have to drill through your transom but drill through the jack plate instead, or your jack plate may already have accommodating holes. You can also call or email for more dimensions as well to give you a better idea if it would work for your specific set up.
Yes it can!
For TurboSwing installation, we recommend using 3M™ Marine Adhesive Sealant Fast Cure 4200FC as it is tack free in 1 hour and can allow for disassembly if needed. It is a non-PVC, non-silicon sealant this is recommended as silicon base sealant can stain gel coat.
Yes, it is. https://turboswing.com/pub/media/turboswing/pdf/TurboSwing-Installation-Instructions.pdf Installing the TurboSwing on a pontoon boat is the same. You would attach it using your existing engine bolt as shown in Motor Bracket Option in the link above. I hope this helps!
