I took some 400lb leader, 300lb snap on one end, bright red 3-4 inch poly ball on the other end (some water injected inside the ball for some weight to stretch it out)
Measures 73 long
Given the hook should be in the corner of the mouth, so there is length to spare before sinking the harpoon.
As mentioned, slide it down the line for the measurement, should cutting the leader and not getting the hook back possible, the small polly ball should keep this thing afloat to get it back.
27-59 should not be a problem controlling for the boat side measurement.

LETS GO BRANDON
