Qué cubre este vídeo
The crew installs 1-inch tubular webbing jacklines with a 4,000-pound breaking strength on a C&C 39 to improve safety during offshore passages.0:45 The installation requires mounting stainless steel eye bolts at the cockpit and the bow, positioned to avoid interference with existing winches and sail tracks.0:49 To ensure a watertight seal, the crew applies butyl tape to all deck penetrations and hardware washers.3:03 Inside the cabin and anchor locker, the crew secures the eye bolts with nuts and washers, using an impact driver for final tightening.5:10 The webbing attaches to the eye bolts using a water knot, which maintains the full breaking strength of the material.7:06 This system allows the crew to traverse the length of the deck while remaining clipped to a single tether, eliminating the need to manually disconnect and reconnect at each stanchion.9:11 The setup ensures that in the event of a fall, the sailor remains closer to the deck rather than dragging in the water.10:33
