On the port side their are two hoses that go to the back one is the one you hook up to winterize that goes out the back the other goes in the side of the pump ? Is that the one to clamp off ?

My 2006 GTI 130 manual says to pinch the water supply hose from the impeller housing to the exhaust manifold which is labeled with red tape.
Operator manual for 2011 GTI 130 says to not exceed 15 mph when towing in water. No mention of hose pinching or red tape. http://www.operatorsguides.brp.com/Index.aspx?lang=E&s1=b2ec0d34-37a4-4a2d-a2ad-92c437c814fe.

Looked at the link above , looks like they don’t want to show you so you don’t forget to take it off [emoji3525] probably worried about liability

The Manual shows you what hose to pinch off,
I bought a 3/4" plastic valve and 2 - 3/4" threaded hose barbed fittings at Lowe's and cut it into that hose. It has the same I.D. as the hose and I can shut it off if needed to tow. I leave it open normally and would only need to close it if I had to in case of an issue where I had to pull it.
I also added a small automatic bilge pump that is direct to the battery and discharges out the back under the tow hook. I put an in line fuse in an accessible area under the seat to disconnect it if needed. Also fused it at the battery.
I tie the ski at next to my boat on the weekends and gives me peace of mind if anything starts to leak. so far dry as a bone inside after 2 -3 days in the water.
I can try to get a picture of both if you need it.
