Think I've lost the sense of this thread, but, if the original question centered on fine tuning of the length of the long tow line --- down from the stock 50 foot or whatever its length ---, one easy way is to crochet knot it down to 30 feet; if you're going to have to tow in larger swells and want to maintain more separation, just pull out the last knot --- where you run it all the way through --- and you've instantly got a whole lot of line! (Just don't ask me how to explain a crochet knot in email text --- or in those little pictures that everyone else is so good at doing!)
