I have been trying to figure out the best way to attach the tube tow rope to the transom tow point. I am used to tow points that are U shaped or a circle where you can loop the rope around the outside and bring it back through. On those the "dongle" in the middle is usually pointed up. The way this is integrated to the grab handle on the Yamaha seems to make it so you can't loop back around the outside like you would on a traditional tow point. I feel like I'm missing somethin, what do you all do?

Can you take a picture of the tow point area so we have a better idea of what's going on

I don't have a picture of mine specifically, my boat is not stored at my house. However, here is a stock picture of what I am talking about. The tow point in in the middle of the metal handle between the lower deck and higher deck.
