Sept. 2024: Video from owner Ken, who writes, "We are on a little cruise in the San Juan Islands. A friend just sent us this photo and video of Rosie passing by her waterfront home. We were quite a way off sure so she must of had a long lens. Mount Baker in the background. I have said this many times on the forum, but need to say it again. This is a wonderful design. We enjoy every trip on her!" More at: https://bandbyachtdesigns.com/OB26
Experience Greenland and its wild nature on board our expedition vessel Valiente this summer! ⛵ The word kayak comes from the Greenlandic Inuit language and means "hunter’s boat." It was the Inuit who invented kayaks, and they have been used for more than 4,000 years. Early kayaks were made of driftwood, animal skin, and bones. The Eskimo Roll is a technique that helps you flip back up if you capsize. Would you like to give it a try? Are you ready for Greenland?
How to tie a Double sheet bend. #katknots. ▫️ The double sheet bend joins two ropes of different thicknesses well especially if they are wet. Also known as the double flag bend. Make sure both working ends are on the same side when completed. It's stronger that way. ▫️ Form a bight (loop) with the thicker rope. Keep the end up top. ▫️ Thread the thinner line through the loop as shown and then round behind the thicker rope. ▫️ Pass the working end of the thinner line round the neck of your loop. Then tuck the thinner line back under itself twice. It's quicker but not as strong. ▫️ An example of when you might use this knot: attaching a heaving line to a mooring line so it's easier to throw ashore. ▫️ #multihulls #sailing #catamarans #sailinglife #knots #sailingknots #ropes #bestknots #multihull #knot #boats #yachts #catamaran #rope #instaknots #seamanship #sheetbend #katamarans #flagbend #doublesheetbend
