Ron answers a common question we get from sailors. Is it possible to get the required measurements for us to make really good sails when your mast isn't even up? Yes, it is entirely possible. We made a blog and video getting excellent measurements for a headsail and mainsail while your mast is down. Check out the instructional videos and blogs below. https://www.precisionsailloft.com/blog/measuring-for-new-sails-mainsail-with-the-mast-down/ https://www.precisionsailloft.com/blog/measuring-for-new-sails-headsail-with-the-mast-down/ If you have any questions give us a call at 1-888-958-5638 or email: info@precisionsailloft.com

The figure 8 knot is one of if not the most used sailing stoppers knots. It is easy to tie, provides a decent sized stopper and is relatively easier to untie after load has been applied. For a more detailed tutorial follow the link below. https://youtu.be/jV99J9nmG1g When tying the figure 8 knot it is important pull it really tight, with stiff modern ropes the knot can have a tendency to untie itself if it is only loosely tightened. If you have mastered this knot and would like to learn more the following playlist has more knots for you to know and master. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLMoCfFBA9IMUcOoZy5QT-o66DM8uHukkH If you want to know even more knots why not pick up a copy of the definitive book on knots. The Ashley Book of Knot has approximately 3900 different kinds, from simple hitches to “Marlinspike Seamanship.” Mr. Ashley has included almost everything there is to know about them. Precisely named and classified (some new ones for the first time officially), they can be easily found in the big index. He tells when they appeared, something about their history, and what they are good for. . https://amzn.to/3fkisle We hope you enjoyed todays video, thanks for stopping by and supporting Bottom up Boats, as an amazon associate we get commission from associated sales.
