This is a reasonable concern.  Perhaps it could be
overcome by the way its rigged.  I would think that to
hand-off you could tie a quick loop in the tow boat
end of the rope.  Someone could then clip the tow line
onto their own pig tail.

Are there any better alternatives then the simple
"eye" to put the tow rope through?  Something that
would allow a pre-tied bowline to go through?
