What is the loop on the trailer wench strap for?

[personalt]

Just replaced my rotted trailer wench strap and the new strap has a fabric loop that sits at the end of the strap. What is the purpose of that? I feel like this is a dump question with a simple solution but have no idea why it is there.

To go through the bow hole in your hull if you dont have a bow hook. The strap would double back and hook together.

Also please look up Wench, and Winch........there is a BIG difference!

If you need a trailer to haul your wench, you got yourself a big one..
