Greetings,
This question will highlight what a newbie I am but I’d rather be safe than sorry. We’ve been going over different ways to get our dogs in and out of the cabin with the steep steps. Several have suggested a hoist system hooked to the end of the boom. At the same, hubby and I have been discussing how we would get him on board with the life sling in the event he falls over ( or I push him )
When I bring my mainsail down I move the halyard to the end of the boom. Do you think that the boom and halyard will be strong enough to hoist a 225 man out of the water ( using the life sling tackle system) ?
