So the question is: ""What is the right length?" Consider fore deck,
stays'l area, mast, vang, cockpit and stern areas. I have two on my harness
but the idea of one on the mast at least in the much shorter length needed
appealed to me.

That's the new question. How many? What length? Is there a perfect length
for all situations? If not . . .what is your recommendation?

I don't think this is necessarily a bad idea but having an extra tether
banging around & catching on things does not appeal to me. Why not have
just 1 the right length?


The idea is to be able to clip onto a new work point before you unclip
the last point. Anyone who has worked in rough weather on an open deck
knows how wise this is!
