NOTICE
– This system is designed for tem-
porary use in normal conditions.
Do not use as a permanent moor-
ing system, or in extreme condi-
tions (strong winds, waves, etc.).
– Regularly inspect rope condition;
do not tie up watercraft with a
damaged rope. Replacing BRP
rope by any other rope will void
the speed-tie warranty.
– If speed ties are used in salt wa-
ter conditions, the rope should
be regularly rinsed thoroughly
with fresh water to prevent salt
buildup in the rope and speed-tie
mechanism. This will help extend
the life of the rope and ensure
proper operation the mechanism.
NOTE: The rope of the speed-tie is a
wear item that is not covered under
normal warranty.
Refer to

section for
speed-tie cleaning instructions.
