Mike,
My reference to attaching them to the dogbone was a matter of safety. I realize that attaching the line straight to your harness would be a more secure arrangement but if I ever did capsize the boat, I would then have two lines to get out of to get clear and away from the boat. My reference to attach it to the dogbone was only to minimize your attachment to the boat for safety and to reduce the amount of connections you needed to make when getting on the wire.
