Jackline == Jackstay

Captain John, Thank you for sharing your knowledge with others. Unfortunately your jacklines video scares me. Jacklines need to be ran and used to always keep people ON the boat. On a regular sailboat this means a centerline jackline used with approximately 3 to 4 foot tethers. In no way, without failure of hardware, should someone attached to a proper system be able to become a MOB. I singlehand and have found myself flying above the deck in interesting ways but painfully always stay on the deck, a must. If I had ran my lines as you propose I would not be here to type a few times over.

MOB is the most dangerest part of sailing, I know of yachtmasters who have drowned attached to the yacht, as they were draged through the water. If only the crew had stopped the boat.( 5 crew on board and he drowns) As I prefer to sail single handed my jackline is down the centre of the yacht. Fixed at the base of the mast, and to the roof so I can not tread on it. My tether length is 5' Beam is 12' so I feel that I am safe.

I single hand in the PNW 90% of the time. If I go overboard while clipped to a jackline my tether would hang up on the stancions and leave me dragging through 45 degree water (assuming my autopilot was engaged) If the autopilot was not engaged and assuming the boat stopped it would be next to impossible for me to clamber back aboard with no help. Since I am 75 years old the fact is that if I should happen to go overboard I can pretty much figure that I will soon be a resident of Davey Jones Locker. Which if that should occur, I would have no regrets as that beats heck out of finishing my sailing life in a hospital room.

Any particular knot used to attach the tether to the PFD/harness?

Captain John, Your channel is really great. I am finding the feedback from you and reading the comments very useful. I subscribed and i recommend other sailers do the same as a point of sharing info and tips. its awesome. your vid's on sail trim are methods i use often and work out great, even the ability to truly get close hauled and gain a few boat lengths to windward on a tack. creating clean foils and balancing the helm for me have always been the goal of setting sails. A great task for me was to balance the helm by trimming the sails. It was easier on a tiller but weather helm is a great indicator also if you have a wheel. i have a 36 catalina with a furler reefing 160 genoa. i have the tack set just above no wrinkles. 40/60 ratio and my main is about 50/50 draft. i cant wait to practice sail trim and tacks with my newer crew made up of family and friends. its fun to see how everyone evolves together and really become part of the boat. thats always been when we were able to take sailing to the next level.

i am prepping my 36 Catalina for more adventures sailing to come. anything that adds a bit more safty and even simply for added piece of mind will help out alot. for me, theres nothing worse than family and friends wanting to venture to the bow under sail, even with a life jacket. any advice on this safty issue, thanks everyone.

very good advice, the windward jack lines address many safty issues and resolve most of them. there are very few reasons to ever venture down the lee side of the boat. jack lines may also give a false sense of security in these conditions. BUT, i will practice sailing with jack lines and maybe add a little safty for my family.

I have always felt that a jackline system should keep you aboard in all conditions. I use mine as a third "hand", leaning back against it, all the time.
