One of my new favourite knots is the Zeppelin Bend, for tying 2 ropes together. It's a very strong knot from the late 18th century that was used to secure Zeppelin airships full of hydrogen or helium to the ground. This video will quickly show you how to tie one. .... This knot can cope with a huge strain and it won't jam under load, meaning you can untie it in an emergency: it's the Mother of all knots. ... Zeppelins were up to 3 times longer than a 747. That's quite a force for a knot. Sure, you can just use a Sheet Bend for the same purpose, but why ask Mr Bean for help when you know Schwarzenegger? Anyway, this knot has a great back story and a cool name: the Zepper!

Winner of Classic Boat magazine's Restoration of the Year Over 40 ft Award 2020, the registered UK National Historic Vessel HERON II is a beautiful 1936 Fred Shepherd design, now revived with a modern touch to meet the desires and capability of current times. https://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/726/HERON%20II She slices through the swell with “... a good turn of speed”, as reported by Uffa Fox in 'Racing, Cruising and Design', and is roomy and bright inside, with a stylish and practical living space. Inside and out she is a thoughtfully evolved classic, finished to a high standard in keeping with her original build. HERON II offers more sleeping accommodation than most #vintage #yachts of this size, lending herself to comfortable cruising and day #charter opportunities.
