Zusammenfassung:	A support mechanism for use in releasably stowing a load on a vehicle. The support mechanism includes a flexible member extending from the vehicle, and an annular fitting member having a receiving end for receiving the flexible member. An inside surface of the fitting member is tapered at the receiving end so that an inside diameter of the fitting member decreases with distance from the receiving end. In addition, a method for selectively moving a load on a vehicle from a stowed position to a released position using a supporting mechanism including a flexible member extending from the vehicle. The method includes providing an annular fitting member for receiving the flexible member, supporting the load using the fitting member, and moving the fitting member further away from the vehicle so as to bring the load into the released position.
