I'm starting to plan my boat projects for the coming season, and one item
is determining the best way to anchor tethers. It seems like jacklines
would add more clutter to the deck than a 19-footer needs. I'm thinking
padeyes, but where to place them? Are six-foot tethers short enough to
keep a person aboard when the boat is only 7'6" wide? Questions, questions.

I'd like feedback from other P-19 owners who use tethers. What length
tethers do you use and how do you secure them to the boat? Thanks.
