The Stevedore's knot is a powerful stopper knot, like a super-charged Figure of Eight knot. 🔸 Make an overhand loop like you would in the figure-of-eight. Bring the working end round a couple of times instead of one (or just twist the loop) and tuck it through the original loop. Tighten Voilà! Easy! And even stronger than the Figure-of-Eight on video 2, although that is quicker to tie (just) if you are in a rush. 🔸 🔸 🔸 #sailing #multihulls #catamarans #knots #ropes #learnknots #learntosail #katschool #knot #rope #lovesailing #sailinglife #katamarans #stopperknot #katknots

🌋⛵ When sea meets fire — a traditional sailing vessel battles roaring waves as a volcano erupts in the distance, ash clouds rising and a fiery glow lighting the horizon. Pure cinematic drama! 🔥🌊 #VolcanoSailing #EpicAdventure #OceanDrama #SailingLife #NaturePower #SailingAdventure #FireAndSea #LoveSailing #CinematicSailing #SeaExplorers
