Learning how to tie the Stevedore Stopper knot is well worth the effort. Here at bottom up boats we think it is the ultimate stopper knot. For a full tutorial follow the link below. https://youtu.be/eZnMnIMic7I It is relatively easy to tie, has a decent sized stopper, is secure under low load and easy to untie after load has been applied due to the way the knot is finished. These three key features of the stevedore stopper knot ensure that you will never loose a line through a pulley or cleat while knowing you will not need a knife to undo the knot after it has been loaded up. The Stevedore knot is used a lot less than a figure 8 or an overhand knot, we find this hard to comprehend as it is just as easy to tie with many benefits. That is why we encourage ever sailor to add this to hit list of most used knots. 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.

🪢 Sunday Boat Tip [3/52] 🪢 Living on a boat means having a very endless space to store things. And the games we bought from Sweden have long since been played til boredom! So when we recently started to learn how to play Backgammon (actually on the plane to Trinidad) we started looking for a board that we could bring onboard. But our game box is full, and we didn’t really find anything good. So I started to browse the App Store and found an app that does everything that we wished for; we can play against each other offline, the pieces don’t roll away if there is a sudden wave and the dice can’t end up in the ocean… Win-Win!!! Have you tried any old school games in a digital form? What do you think about it, yay or nay 👍🏻👎🏻? And most importantly, do you have any other games that we can play like this that we can add to our digital collection?! We need to stock up! Please comment below to help us out 🤗
