Sailing Harness

CAUTION: Use only as a sailing harness.

Models with a sailing harness (MD3184) are designed to prevent the user from falling overboard when used with a tether with an under-load quick-release hook and have been designed and tested in accordance with Offshore Racing Council (ORC) requirements. Care and attention must be taken to ensure that the harness is used and maintained correctly. The harness is designed to be worn by persons at least 5 feet 5 inches tall (165 cm). The harness should be worn as high on

the chest as possible, but in all cases, at least 2 inches (5 cm) above the lowest rib measured from the bottom of the belt and should not be used if it does not fit in this manner. Adjust the harness using the strap adjuster so that the harness is as snug as tolerable.

Failure to adjust the harness properly could result in injury.
