Default Re: Buckingham Ratchet Anchorpoint

Apparently it's to be ratcheted onto the boom of an EWP for escape/rescue. Suitable as anchorage point.

But I have cambium savers and a rope guide which is what I'd be using for lifeline.

However for rigging you'd cow hitch a pulley to the stem.

For tying the section, well, I got endless loops you could prussik with half hitch, or just tie it with half hitch and twice round running bowline.
