We sail on the good ship Saracen, a Beneteau Oceanis 473 from 2006. Out journey started in Scotland in early 2023 and our ultimate goal is to sail around the globe …..slowly. We make these videos mostly for family and friends and to create a record of our adventures for ourselves so that we can look back at them later in life, were not in it to make money (way to hard).

⛵The OXO method is a simple and effective way to tie a line onto a boat cleat and is often used by boaters to secure their boats in place. Here are the steps to follow: Begin by taking the end of the line and making a small loop, with the standing part of the line on the bottom and the working end on the top. Bring the line's working end down and around the base of the cleat, making an "O" shape. Next, bring the line's working end back up and over the top of the loop, creating an "X" shape. Then, bring the line's working end down and around the base of the cleat again, creating a second "O" shape. Finally, bring the line's working end back up and over the top of the loop again, creating a second "X" shape. To finish, snug up the line by pulling on the standing part of the line and making a few half hitches around one of the horns of the cleat to keep the line securely in place. The result should be a secure and reliable knot that will keep your boat safely moored to the cleat. It is important to remember always to double-check your knots and make sure they are secure before leaving your boat unattended. #sailingexperience #sailinglife #boatlife #short
