A dear friend (also sailor) Jean-Maurice was battling last stages of cancer. He's got the sailing bug. Sailed this passage before on a Class 40. I sent him this short of myself back in January 2010 when solo-sailing the North Atlantic from Las Palmas, Canary Islands to Mindelo, Cabo Verde.

How to tie a super charged reef knot: the Simple Simon #knots #sailing. Form a bight (loop) and then the easiest way of remembering it is to just use the opposite to the Bowline trick. You know the drill with the rabbit, but backwards ... Down the hole with the working end, round and then back up again. 🔹 This knot is more secure than a reef knot and does not become loose and unravel if it gets jerked around. It also works well with different sized ropes and slippy synthetic, something the Reef can't really claim to do. 🔹 A good one for your Knot Arsenal is the Simon.
