Abstract:
An improved pylon clamp for a boom assembly is disclosed for use in conjunction with a skiboat having a pylon. The clamp is attached to the pylon and supports a boom so that it extends laterally outwardly from the boat. The clamp includes a first portion adapted for connection with the pylon and a second portion adapted for connection with one end of the boom. The first clamp portion has a pair of arcuate legs with an inner surface which flatly abuts against the pylon and a threaded fastener which, upon tightening, compresses the arcuate legs together and clampingly engages the pylon. The second portion of the clamp includes a pair of spaced apart legs which are adapted to receive one end of the boom therebetween. A fastener extends through the spaced apart legs to secure the boom to the pylon clamp.
