Ski Rope Advice

superdawgfan · 08-11-2007, 11:49 AM

Looking for advice or ideas on attaching the ski rope to my boat. Not sure of the right word to describe it--but I have a round vertical mounting with a rod through the middle of the rin (kinda like a raised finger). I have always wrapped the rope around the mounting a few times and then put the end of the rope around/on top of the 'finger.' My problem is that after skiing the rope has been pulled so tight that it ends up really difficult to remove; also has a tendency to fray the ropes at that point.

Anyone have a better suggestion for how to do this?
