An evening walk through Wrangell, Alaska. Rain clouds over the harbor, twilight time-lapse skies, and the Alaskan Gypsy waiting in the shipyard. A glimpse of Southeast Alaska’s stormy beauty.

We have a lot of work to do for our interior refit. The first job is to remove all the lining and timber furniture from the master cabin. We have carbon fibre door frames and composite doors to install for the engine room. That means cutting out the frames a little neater to fit the new ones.

Bowline. Pinch and Twist (Mariner's) method. #katknots ▫️ More knots at kats.co/kts or click our profile link and head to the footer links. ▫️ This is a great quick way of tying a bowline. You can even do this one handed. ▫️ Before you start, just take a minute to see how the line is arranged. Then do it the same every time. In this example, the standing end and working end are running away from you. Say if you were on the dock tying up your tender. ▫️ The working (loose end) is on my right and I lay it over the standing end. Then I pinch the join with my right hand and twist clockwise and do a thumbs up 👍🏽 so the rope end pops up through the loop you have made. Practise this a few times. ▫️ Then finish off as usual, round the tree, back down the hole. Easy! Make sure the working end lies on the inside of the loop (come around the tree right to left in this example). That's the pinch and twist bowline, practise it and you'll be able to do it with your eyes shut. 😴 ▫️ #sailing #sailinglife #knots #sailingknots #ropes #bestknots #knot #rope #youtubeknots #katamarans #bowline #learnknots #learntosail
