Making a towing bridle

[RoyB]

Thanks to all of you for sharing your knowledge.
The boat (an offshore racer) doesn't have any useful fairleads at the bow and If I install any I'd have to re-enforce the forward deck below (not to mention the bowman, who, while physically small is also very opinionated and a bit intimidating at times :-).
I'll organise some very heavy thick tubing as a chafe protector and hope for the best
