In Response To: Loop de'Loop or Hold onto Your Yak!! (Rehd)

: Two ideas I had were to drill and fill hole with epoxy, down into the bow and
: stern stems and then redrill and run a screw/eye down into them. Would
: work for the car top hold-down, but would be a bit small for a hand hold.

This wouldn't be pretty in the kayak building tradition but you could take two pieces of pvc about 8" long and put them in your steamer to soften them up, then bend them in a shape simular to a stirup on a saddle. Then thread your line from your eye screw/bolt through the handle and tie off.
