Hi, I don't use a belt attatchment, I have a cleat and fairlead on the back deck with a small bag velcroed in the right position on deck to hold the chain coiled rope in place. Chain coiling means it can be 2 different lengths as required. Most people around here (North Wales), including BCU qualified coach / intructor types discourage towing from the waist.
