Does any have an approximate number for the length of the deck perimeter? I'm going to install netting on the lifelines and I'm wondering how much I need.
Thank you!

Unfortunately, I don't know the answer yet, but if you figure out the answer yourself without someone posting it on the forum, please do update this post. I'm about to buy netting as well for the same reason.

I have my boat one hour away so it's not very convenient to measure. Don't have a long and flexible measuring tape either for that matter. What I have done is take a paper diagram of the boat and measure the perimeter using a string. Not very precise but should be good enough for what I need. I get 81'4" as perimeter. I'm going to order 90'.
By the way the best deal I've found for quality netting is https://www.defender.com/product.jsp?id=6698449 which comes out to $0.90 a foot.

Thanks. That's probably close enough. My boat's currently two hours away until we can get a weather window to sail it home. When I get it home, I'll use a 10' rope to get an accurate measurement and update this thread for posterity. I'm sure others will need the info.
