I use a quick release buckle on the towee end of my tow lines, my side
being releasable by the web belt on my pfd.  I don't know what kinds of
release systems others use for towees.  I'd be interested to know.

The buckle I have is from a horse tack store.  It is attached to a line
that is used to tether horses in trailers or on cross ties.  Very easy
to find in catalogs, it is called a "panic snap".
