Just splashed hull #847 last week - loving it so far. We had bought lifeline netting for the whole deck forward of the cockpit, but when she arrived the dealer had run the jib sheets through the lifelines. It looks like you can just run them over the lifelines - a bit awkward, but it doesn't seem too radical a departure. Has anyone else encountered this? How did it work out? Other suggestions for lifeline netting solutions would be appreciated.

I run the jib sheets inside the lifelines most of the time, but sometimes I run them outside when sailing long periods at broad reach or running. Might be tough to do with lifeline netting, however.

We keep our jib sheets inside the lifeline. Seems that would be the easiest solution with netting.
