Pullable handle with a rope (clipped sprite\s with joints?)

[mountS]

Hi, I need some insight about this thing.

I want to create a handle that's basically stuck in place, and you can pull it with your mouse (imagine a motorboat)

I also need to get information of how much pulling was made.

my game currently doesn't use physics if it matters.

please help me, I'm a little bit confused.

forot to mention, it should'nt be affected by physics, or it may be... the thing is -

if the motor boat is viewed from top down view, and it can move up down left and right, the handle should adjust.
