Square Knot is also known as a reef knot. It is easy to tie, but when you join two lines together be aware because it easily slips and comes undone.

A powerful storm sends huge waves into a busy marina, violently rocking the moored sailboats. Then one smaller sailboat suddenly rolls onto its side as people scramble away from the dock edge. Captured in raw handheld smartphone style with realistic storm conditions, waves, wind and marina sounds. 🌊⛵ #Shorts #Sailing #Storm #Marina #Sailboat #Boating #Ocean Disclaimer: This video was created using AI for creative and entertainment purposes.

#shorts #shorts #subscribe @SailingKawai Follow along as we sail to amazing destinations around the world. Full video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKqjmVe7Aus We are really excited to share this video, a beautiful place with so much natural beauty. Butterfly Valley is a bit of a special place because so few people can get to the beach. Only accessible via boat or a steep hike down a cliff face, this paradise was a favorite of ours. We begin our journey from Fethiye in Southern Turkey and leave early in our Hanse 445 sail boat. Our plan is to leave early to get the pick of the anchorage and beat all the tourist boats who arrive from around 11am. It's also important to choose a calm day with favourable wind and swell conditions. The research we had conducted showed many of the tourist boats would land their boats on the left hand side of the bay. When we arrived the right hand side was free, with a perfect spot in front of the swimming enclosure. We dropped in 28m and let out 40m of chain. We spent the next couple of hours swimming and exploring this beautiful area, spotting numerous sea turtles, schools of fish and snorkeling the rocks nearby. We also took the tender out and explored the rocks away from the beach. There is a hike up through Butterfly valley that is worth while. It costs 10TL to enter the valley which takes you through the valley into a canyon with steep walls and 2 waterfalls which cool the entire area. There are some cables drilled into the rocks to assist you to climb higher up the valley which gives you access to better views and the waterfalls. There are 105 butterfly species that call the valley home, but they aren't easy to find. I am fortunate to find 3 different species of butterfly. When I return from my walk the once peaceful Butterfly Valley is filled with noise and tourist boats which changes the feel of the place. I would definitely recommend arriving early and spending the first couple hours of the day soaking up the tranquility. We decide to spend the night at Karacaören Restaurant, which has buoys for sailboats to tie-up to for free if you dine at the restaurant. The water looks similar to Butterfly Valley, a perfect blue with great clarity. The evening is spent dining at the restaurant, taking in the special view and enjoying great company, a perfect day in paradise.
