The article presents an analysis of ways to control the motion parameters of a towed vessel, which is part of the towing system, by adjusting the tension and (or) length of the towing cable during the towing operation. The analysis is based on the results of model experiments using a mathematical model of a towed vessel and a towing cable. Based on systematic analysis of the process of movement of a towed vessel, the main dependences of the values of the kinematic parameters of its movement were identified when adjusting the tension and length of the towing cable, and the most effective method of regulation was established.
