An elevated tow device comprised of: first and second substantially
vertical support members, each slidably and pivotally engaging a boat
support structure on a lower end and forming an apex on an upper end, the
height and width of which can be adjusted; a tether attachment point at
the apex adapted to mechanically engage a tether for connecting to a
towed object; at least one forestay connecting the device to a bow of the
boat; and at least one rear stay connecting the device to the boat
support structure, the forestay and rear stay providing stability to the
device. Because of the way that the device is connected to the boat
support structure, the device is adjustable in height and width and is
also collapsible.
