Hunter 39 jack line length

[Knotty Dog]

Hello, has anyone purchased jack lines for this model and if so, what length did you go with, what brand and is it all working out ok?
Thanks, Linda

Hi Linda, my idea may not be the best, but I made jack lines for our boat several years ago anticipating some off shore cruising; have yet to use them. Purchased bulk flat one inch nylon cargo strapping from our local industrial supply house (good for several thousand pounds working load) and made a bow cleat loop on one end of each. Straps, port and starboard, are long enough to reach and secure to a stern cleat. Also have the tether and harness. Maybe some day.

Great idea, thanks Terry, I'll look into that.
