I have both West and Spinlock harnesses on my boat. IMHO the Spinlock is much better and certainly is more comfortable. The West Marine version is still way better than none if you want to save some cash. I bought the cheap one and then my lovely wife got me a Spinlock for Christmas ☺ ☺ Joe Coquina
