I give up. I can't get onto the website either. Perhaps
thousands of lurkers rushed the photo and used up my daily
download allowance. I'll try and put it up in webshots
now....sheesh...

More seriously, I don't think that's a good way to rig a safety line.

Perhaps I should have posed the photo. The photo does look a bit
like there's one super long line (long enough to waterski with!)
but that's optical illusion: there is a spare tether attahced to
the rudder-post beam which appears to be a continuation of the
tether I'm wearing but isn't. The tether I'm wearing is attached
to a strong point about 6inchs abaft an a foot below the turning
block in the foreground. Tether lengths are only 1.5m. The
strong point is a 1" ply hull/deck plate anchoring a U-bolt with
giant washers and a spreader plate.
