Wichard 7069W US Sailing Offshore Double Safety Tether 6ft Elastic Webbing

The Wichard 7069W is a US Sailing-compliant offshore double safety tether designed to keep sailors securely attached to their vessel in demanding offshore conditions. Measuring 6 feet (2 meters) in length, this tether features elastic webbing that reduces drag and keeps the line tidy on deck while still providing full-length reach when needed.

Built to the highest safety standards, this tether is equipped with two double-action safety hooks — requiring two deliberate motions to open, preventing accidental release in rough conditions — plus one stainless steel snap hook for quick attachment to jacklines and deck fixtures. The dual-hook configuration allows the sailor to clip into a new attachment point before releasing the original, ensuring continuous connection at all times.

Key Features:

• US Sailing offshore compliant — meets requirements for offshore racing and cruising
• Two double-action safety hooks — automatic closing and opening mechanism prevents accidental release
• One stainless steel snap hook — corrosion-resistant and quick to deploy
• Elastic webbing construction — keeps the tether retracted and out of the way until tension is applied
• 6-foot (2-meter) length — provides full reach across the cockpit and deck
• Double tether design — allows clip-to-clip transfer for uninterrupted safety attachment
