[C320-list] Lifeline replacement

[Joe Geiger]

We replaced our lifelines last year with the Catalina direct kit. Everything pre-measured and has pelican clips, turnbuckles and a hand crimping tool. 

They also offer two styles; bear or coated for under $700.

The replacement kits at catalina direct don’t seem right to me. They put the gate at the front of the cockpit. My pelican hooks are aft, which is where I need them to be.
