We used two tethers. One longer, one shorter, and the jack lines
didn't go the full length of the boat.

Sounds reasonable. Where's the best place for the clip for your safety

Shoulder.

Nah. Tether on the harness should be short enough so you aren't
dragging in
the water if you go over anyway. For it, you want to be able to grab
something
and pull yourself back up - not be scrabbling behind your back.

True if you're singlehanding. If you're on a working boat it's
necessary sometimes to be on a longer safety line.
