Each stanchion shall have two eyes, one at the top and one half-way from the top to the socket, in which man-ropes shall be rove for the full length of the planks. Two substantial iron or wooden spar outriggers, each projecting from ship’s side outwards a distance of 4 ft. 6 in., and 9 ft. apart, shall be fixed from the ship’s side under and abreast of the trolley-way, and a net shall be stretched taut from one outrigger to the other.
