A PFD safety harness, tether and jackline might be a better alternative.

I find it very useful to keep dogs, kids, and sails on deck. An adult is
much more likely to go over the top.

Since I sail often single/double handed, I am thinking about adding lifeline
safety netting to my boat.  It seems like it might be useful to prevent
rolling off the deck into the water (ie. death).  Never having fallen off a
boat, I am not sure if it is really worth it and if there are many scenarios
where these might prevent disaster.  Does anyone have experience about the
pro/cons of doing this?  Thanks- Dave
