Yep, I like the look.

I'm thinking the Polynesians probably tied their lifelines on, and I understand they are/were pretty good sailors and ocean reading navigators.

Plus, I didn't have lifelines on any of my past sailboats this one being the last of 4. (Not sure if the Polynesians were as good at setting mast prebend though for heavy weather buoy racing. Checkout some of the masts on the lead boats):
