Longer version at katamarans.com/bowline-on-a-bight/ 🔸 The Bowline on the Bight is a double-loop variation of the bowline. Tie it in the centre of a line when you need a loop and you can't easily get to either end. 🔸 It makes a good hoist if you have to lower or raise someone, with one loop the seat and the other under the armpits and around the chest. The loops should not slip and it shouldn't jam after strain. 🔸 With a doubled up rope, make a small overhand loop as you would in a Bowline. Thread the end of the bight up through the loop. 🔸 Open the end of the doubled rope and bring it down and around as shown and tighten. 🔸 🔸 🔸 #sailing #multihulls #catamarans #knots #ropes #learnknots #learntosail #katschool #knot #rope #lovesailing #sailinglife #katamarans #bowlineonthebight
The skipper on Going to Red splits the gap between one boat racing to windward and another running down wind in his J109 in the third weekend of racing at the season ending Frosties Regatta out of SLYC on the lovely strangford lough. The early October weather as simply stunning with 8 to 14 knots push the boats around the two races which were held on a perfect day for sailing on the lough. There was only a small fleet racing in the IRC fleet which was slightly disappointing end to the season. After a slow start in weeks 1 and 2 GTR is not back in the mix with two race wins on day 3 of the regatta.
