I have a single 3/8" line on 18" (or so) stanchions. On the starboard side cockpit, the line has an eye and hook affair that allows you to step onto the boat, and hook it back together once aboard. A much simpler situation, but it can be done. Andrew C&C-24 On 04/30/2015 01:15 PM, Barba

Barbara, you'll need to add gate braces to the stanchions to support them against the fore / aft tension you'll create to make the gate openable. Some boats (including mine) do not close the gate at the lower lifeline; make a choice based on your use of boat / crew. Regards, Tim Mojito C&C 35

 Hi All,  I just found out from my 84 yr old mom whose otherwise healthy as a horse, that she has declined invitations to sail because its hard for her to  get over the lifeline without losing her balance.  So...gates are in order asap!  The upper lifeline is larger than the lower (probably 3/16"
