In this short video we explain how to tie a bowline when you can’t see your hands. The bowline is one of the most commonly used knots in sailing or on sailboats. Many of us have learned the rabbit-hole-tree method, but I find that difficult to use when I can't see what I'm doing. With practice the method shown in this video can be done by feel, without the need to see your hands. To tie the bowline around an object using this method, simply pass the bitter end around the object before passing it back through the thumb loop (i.e. between steps 2 and 3) and pulling the knot over itself.

Bali Catamarans launched 10 years ago with some innovative design features like the aft tilting door and solid foredeck. ▫️ They continue their successful growth as one of the big 3 manufacturers with a range that includes the 38' Catsmart all the way up to the flagship 5.8 which was launched this year. A real achievement in just over a decade. They are not afraid to try new ideas, many of which have been "adapted" by other manufacturers over the years. ▫️ Do you have a favourite model? ▫️ #sailing #catamarans #yachts @BaliCatamarans
