Before netting installation, make sure that all lifelines and stanchions are tight and in good condition. Safety netting is only as safe as the structures it's attached to.
Install lifeline netting by securing the top and bottom edges. Attach the top to the lifelines and secure the bottom to the toe rail or to a second wire run through the stanchion bails along the deck to the pulpit and pushpit legs. Start by attaching the top edge of the netting. Once the top is attached, pull the netting straight down (making straight lines), follow each strand to the bottom, and secure.
Attach the life line netting with a length of leech line to form a continuous "lacing" or with plastic cable ties. The leech line makes for a nicer appearance, but the cable ties are much easier to use and result in a quicker installation. Cable ties could be used initially and leech line laced through at a later time if time and appearance are both important.
