Actually, Ed said "wire tie".  I believe he was referring to the same 
plastic, wire-organizing, cinch strap that you are calling "Tywrap" 
(which I think is a brand name).  That's what I've attached my flag 
pennant to the port spreader with.  The sun will turn it brittle 
after a few seasons and it will probably fall off.  I wonder if there 
is a UV-stabilized version of those?

Cheers!
