Wondering if one of those float balls for the line would help?
But a bit of caution to anyone looking at new towables as this one definitely can be a bit dangerous. Really scary this past weekend when it completely submerged with two little girls on it who were terribly frightened afterwards and we hope we didn't scare them off of tubing for life!
Also, the website ultimatepassage.com was horrible to deal with when asking them about exchanging this for a different tube. I was willing to pay the shipping back to them and use the money I paid for this tube to exchange it and they didn't care at all just said I was 'past the return policy dates'...by a whole month.
I see this tube out on the lake a lot lately and would hate for something tragic to happen...

The ball definitely tames the towed craft, including "Big Mable". If "Big Mable" isn't big enough (or orange enough) here's a "
Great Big Mable" available.
For those who haven't seen the above mentioned float ball, this is what it looks like:
There's no telling what you see around here, including yesterday's newest orange safety device:
