I am thinking of either Mastmate which is a nylon foot loops that use the
mast track or Mastclimber that climbs the halyard. Does anyone have a
preference/recommendation?

The question remains, will a 250# person tip the boat over? Not that this
person will be swinging from side to side. He just doesn't want any
surprises.

Thanks
