I segnali speciali sono costituiti da boe o mede di varia forma dipinte di giallo e sormontate da un miraglio giallo costituito da una croce di Sant’Andrea. Di notte mostrano una luce gialla a lampi. Questi segnali speciali non sono da considerare come un aiuto alla navigazione e di solito si usano per indicare particolari zone come aree protette, zone con limiti di velocità, aree di ormeggio o la presenza di cavi e condotte sottomarine, la presenza di idrovore, inclusi tubi di fognatura con sbocco a mare.
The round turn with two half hitches is a great knot to temporarily attach your rope to just about anything. If you want to see a full tutorial you can see it at the following link. https://youtu.be/M_W3nlil1Ko The round turn and two half hitches is a hitch used to secure the end of a rope to a fixed object. The name refers to the components used to form the knot: a round turn wraps the rope around the object (completely encircling it) and the two half hitches secure the end around the standing part. The round turn with two half hitches is a great knot for tying your fenders to your boat for docking. We prefer this option if you are going to be leaving your boat docked for long periods of time. It will hold tight ensuring your boat is protected by the fenders while you are away. There are other fenders knot that are easier to untie, we would only recommend these for short stays or when you a remaining on the boat while docked. If you will be leaving your boat for an extended period of time the Round Turn with two Half Hitches is the best option. If you want to learn some other skills for docking your boat why not check out our video which compares the Cleat Hitch V OXO for tying your mooring lines to fixed cleats. https://youtu.be/LepMcTJuFfI We hope you enjoyed todays Know Knots demonstration where we showed you how to tie a Round Turn with two Half Hitches, a great knot for securing your fenders for docking.
