The composite deck, cockpit and cabin house of Hull 2 of the #LM46 were infused as a single but complex piece this week at @lyman_morse. The wooden hull of the LM46 provides the experience of sailing a classic yacht; the composite deck provides the water-tight longevity and cost efficiency of a modern yacht. Hulls 1&2 are launching later this year. Follow us to watch the progress. --

As tiny as a fairy, the Bristletail Filefish is perhaps twice as magical. Your out on your dive and a twinkle in the soft coral catches your eye, wait what was that you saw? Famous for her amazing ability to mimic the appearance of other fish and invertebrates including toxic species, her shifting colors blend perfectly into her surround. Only the keenest of eye will catch this magical little fish by surprise. Want to see a Bristletail Filefish? Join us for a dive 👉🏽 https://cruisenautic.com

#katknots 🥨 Rolling Hitch. We haven't done any knots for a while, and we think this one is an essential one to have in your locker. This knot hitches a new line to an existing line (or chain). ▫️ You can use it to take the load off a jammed winch (normally the jib or Code 0 sheet). Or it comes in handy for making an adjustable bridle, if the swell and wind are coming from different directions. ▫️ Tie the first half hitch in the direction of the load (eg towards the sail or anchor). Then go round the standing end, come over again and tuck through the gap. The trick is to keep wrapping in the same direction, towards the load. ▫️ You should be able to see a dog leg or link in the original line and be able to slide the knot forward towards the load. It shouldn't budge pulling in the opposite direction. ▫️ You can tie this with one less wrap or "roll", it will depend on what size your lines are and what type of material the rope is made out of. Test and practice it before you need it. ▫️ What is your favourite knot? ▫️ ▫️ #knots #learnknots #ropes #learntheropes #sailingtips #learntosail #sailing #knot #hitch #rollinghitch #sailinginstagram #sailinglife #rope #lovesailing #katamarans
