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.

Premier chavirage sur les Griffes du Lion !! Mardi 26 mai à Port Camargue, Yvan et Mathis Bourgnon ont tenté d'établir un temps de référence sur le parcours de la Tartine Cup entre la pointe de l'Espiguette et la pointe de Beauduc. Après une première tentative qui s’est soldée par le premier chavirage des Griffes du Lion - comme quoi le parcours de la Tartine Cup réserve de belles surprises même aux plus aguerris - le duo champion d’Europe de Nacra F20, s’est ensuite lancé pour une deuxième tentative. 1h 02min et 10sec plus tard, l’équipage passait la ligne d’arrivée entre la cardinale Ouest et la marque Sud Est du parc marin de Beauduc, soit un parcours de 19,54 milles (36km) exactement, réalisé à la vitesse moyenne de 18,86 nœuds (35km/h).
