This knot is called a round turn and two half hitches. And the round turn of two half hitches is a fantastic knot for tying on fenders. This is a short lesson from our Catamaran sailing Masterclass knot tying lesson. http://masterclass.nautilussailing.com It's also a great knot for tying your dinghy up to a piling. So here are the steps to do a round turn and two half hitches. You go all the way around your stanchion or the dock post, leave quite a bit of tail. So there's our round turn we like to go over and you come back through that triangle, tighten it up, and the second time we come under. And then back over and that tightens it up. And that's a clean looking round turn, two half hitches. And you can see how that is a real strong, solid knot that's gonna hold your fenders or your dinghy to a dock.

Out of nowhere our Spinnaker opened up in 3 pieces 😢 as we still need to sail over 3.000nm in the next 2 months we desperately need a new one to keep our plan on track 🗺️ @rollytaskersails_official will be able to send us a new one in a short period, but we need to decide on the colors. Help us design our new Spinnaker using their design tool on the website (you can find the link in our bio or in the stories). Let your imagination run free combining max 3 colors of your choice and send us a screenshot of your Design ⛵️ Stay Salty, Greta and Michael on Zambezi #spinnaker #sailing #sailboat #catamaran #sailinglife #sailingadventure
