The Jranter harness is equipped with two ultra-strong stainless steel carabiner-style clips designed for secure attachment to a boat's stern eyes. While specific load ratings for the clips themselves are not provided, they are integral to a system rated for a rope break strength of 2000 lbs (728 kg). This indicates they are engineered to withstand significant forces encountered during towing activities like tubing or waterskiing, offering a reliable connection point for recreational use.

Yes, the self-centring pulley mechanism is a key design feature aimed at reducing stress on attachment points. By allowing the tow line to pivot freely, it accommodates changes in boat direction and rider movement, thereby distributing forces more evenly. This reduces the direct lateral pull on fixed D-rings or transom eyes, which is particularly beneficial when turning or when towing multiple riders, contributing to a smoother towing experience and potentially extending the life of the boat's hardware.

The substantial 5.1-inch x 2.9-inch float ball provides significant buoyancy to lift the tow rope. Its primary purpose is to keep the rope elevated above the water's surface, especially near the stern where propeller entanglement is a risk. By maintaining this clearance, even under tension, it helps prevent the rope from sinking and getting caught in the propeller blades, a critical safety and operational benefit during watersports.
