Review is to CLARIFY what others are sayingKONG MAKES 2 different double tethers one with Red hooks and one with Blue hooksI own bothThis tether has a “locking carabiner” for harness attachment the locking ring moves down out of way as soon as you grab caribiner and hook is not deep. Would definitely take more effort to disconnect under pressure but not impossible for the fit sailor More secure than the blue hook tether that has a snap with a pull lanyard.-The Blue hook tether has a standard sailing snap that is in theory a quick release but is extremely difficult to release under pressure without relieving some pressure as seasoned sailors know..My concern is the pull lanyard can snag on your way overboard causing a prematurerelease and I’ll fated disconnect!!Again I own both styles the red hooks with locking carabiner for myself that I use with a spinlock HRS system which is a True Quick Release built into harnessFor my crew I issue Blue hook Quick release with lanyard triggered snap.My reasoning for this is ;My system should not I hope release prematurely but will easily release if neededMy crew will always be watched when on deck should an incident occur, and if they should go overboard during a screaming down wind run when boat cannot quickly be stopped, cannot be brought back aboard and cannot release someone can reach down pull lanyard for release if neededThis Red hook tether with carabiner is a compromise between a snap hook quick release and a positive attachment such as a webbing loop or third safety hook.Those are my thoughts Hope this helpsI’ve sailed hard for 50 years and currently own a 55’ fast fast cruiser/ racer

I just went to a Safety at Sea course and this harness will not let you release yourself when the line is under pressure. If you do fall overboard or the boat capsizes and you are unable to quickly release yourself you will drown.

Works great. You could make your own with a little creativity, but it would take some time.

I love it!, but I haven't really tested it. It is designed to keep you on the boat in conditions that might cause you to fall off and I* haven' tried to fall off, yet. . . I am over 70 and my balance is slowly being eroded away. I am afraid of falling as I move about the boat ( a 30' sail boat) so I keep myself tied off most of the time as a preventative measure. This tether, coupled with an inflatable PFD with built-in harness is the least intrusive combination of maximum safety coupled with minimum aggravation I've been able to come up with. The two tethers let you move about the boat using jack lines or in constant hookup to the boat in a series of hook one, move, hook two, move, unhook,move, hook etc.When I received the package, I was surprised by the actual harness, despite the clear picture Amazon provided in the product description. The tether is made from one long piece of flat elastic webbing with the "people hook" sewn on a bight about 2/3 down the webbing. The "red hooks" are intuitive to operate and large enough to hook to most anything you'd want to hook to. The middle hook (a secure carabiner) appears to me to be plated brass or bronze. A collar must be retracted down the hook side of the carabiner to allow the shackle to be opened. Easy to do one-handed with a little practice. The accompanying photos attempt to clarify my muddy description!In short, the Double Tether is an insurance policy and like most insurance policies it has an impact on operations. Using the tethers to move around is slower and having the webbing hanging on you is inconvenient but bearable. I hope I never find out if the tether actually keeps me on the boat!
