Maggie, The upper support / attachment points will need to be very strong and secure! And, for looking at your pics, you will need to custom design / install these upper attachment points. (have a look at some of my pics, where you'll see 3 - 4 thru-bolted padeyes as the upper attachment points) I don't know if you're still designing / sourcing your lee cloths....but, if you (or anyone else here) is interested, I have some pics and details about my own design and install of lee cloths (and lee boards) on my 47' sloop almost 20 years ago. They've me and my guests/crew safe and secure for years, without an issue. Have a look at these two pages for photos and design/install details: https://jerodisys.com/C470/470pix/47051.htm https://jerodisys.com/C470/470pix/47071.htm And, here is a slide-show, where you'll find photos and about 6 minutes of narration about my lee cloths / lee boards....starting at about 42 minute mark. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4MWf2SyTKU I hope this helps.
