A floating object attachment system for attaching one end of a rope or cable attached at its opposite end to a submerged anchor. The attachment system includes a rigid support pole attached to a mounting plate attached to the bottom surface of a floating object. Attached to the support pole is a swivel arm adapted to rotate freely 360 degrees around the support pole. A plurality of radially aligned gussets hold the support arm perpendicular to the mounting plate. The swivel arm includes a horizontal flange with a center bore that receives the support pole and a lateral, downward extending diagonal arm with a grommet hole that connects to the rope or cable. The support pole includes a lower stop surface and an upper stop surface on the support pole. Disposed around the support pole and between the horizontal flange and the upper and lower stop surfaces are nylon washers.
