    What do you have on the bow of your dyne? Mine has allways had handle. I know people who have a light. it looks like some of the pics on this site that there is nothing. Was it built several ways from the factory? did it depend on the year?

    They were built with a variety of configurations. My first choice would be nothing. Nothing for the ski rope to hang on when doing around the boats.

    My second choice is like my boat which has a plug in light on the bow. The receptacle is like the one commonly used for stern lights with a little cover. It looks like a rope could not hang on it, but one did the other day on the stern receptacle with the cover closed. I have never used the lights.

    It shows up pretty well in this picture.

    Hey, a bow light can have many functions like when you have to paddle your boat in it keeps you from sliding off the bow by straddling it! LOL!

    When my rescue tow arrived and they threw me a ski rope I asked them very nicely not to "hit it" as it would have been very painful !! LOL!

    Occasionally a small child.

    I ran across this picture and wanted to post it somewhere, so this seemed an appropriate spot. He is 3 in this picture. If I asked him to pose like this now, he would say: <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_rolleyes.gif" border="0" alt="Rolling Eyes" title="Rolling Eyes" />
