Drag rope is now THIN #600 test Dynema attached to main body with three point harness kind of like a drift anchor harness. Holes on underside not too big for toothy critters to see through. Black 5200 caps in place, with couple flat zip-ties for insurance(I'm rough on gear)....I forget I'm even dragging the thing.

Blue squids, what's the vecro around the tube for? And can you post a picture of the top rigging of the tube to the yak? I want to know how you know how you keep the tube from banging against the side of the yak, an always irritating sound as you paddle.
