The Double Over Hand Knot is a variation on the Over Hand knot that creates a larger stopper by adding and additional loop in the main part of the knot. The larger stopper of the Double Over Hand Knot is useful for thinner lines which may slip through the cleat, pulley or eye that the rope is running through. For a full tutorial follow the link below. https://youtu.be/JJcNIHOLJVg Learning how to tie a double over hand knot only takes seconds, most sailors have most likely tied one even if they don't know what it is called. Another advantage the double over hand not has over the single is that it is more secure prior to any load being applied to it. This results in less chance of the double hand knot coming undo. The double loop of the knot also makes it easier to untie after load has been applied. The team has at bottom up boats has loads of knot video tutorials, watch to the playlist below to learn more. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLMoCfFBA9IMUcOoZy5QT-o66DM8uHukkH If you want to know even more knots why not pick up a copy of the definitive book on knots. The Ashley Book of Knot has approximately 3900 different kinds, from simple hitches to “Marlinspike Seamanship.” Mr. Ashley has included almost everything there is to know about them. Precisely named and classified (some new ones for the first time officially), they can be easily found in the big index. He tells when they appeared, something about their history, and what they are good for. . https://amzn.to/3fkisle We hope you enjoyed todays video, thanks for stopping by and supporting Bottom up Boats, as an amazon associate we get commission from associated sales.

Cómo es la cubierta de un Volvo Open 70. Preparando la navegación a vela de Vigo a Malta. Velas por todas partes, drizas, escotas, estays volantes, contras, grilletes textiles. De todo hay en esta cubierta, además, lo que no es dyneema, es fibra de carbono. Cuando uno se hace a la mar, sobre todo en un barco que es novedad para él, grandes emociones y pensamientos nos recorren de la cabeza a los pies. En un par de horas nos ponemos rumbo a Malta. Por cierto, este es un fragmento de la primera parte de una serie de Youtube en la que navego desde Vigo hasta Malta en un Volvo Ocean Race.
