#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
Subscribe to the 49er youtube channel at: http://www.youtube.com/user/49erSailingOffical The 2013 European Championship of 49er sailing is from July 2-7, 2013. Join us on 49er.org to catch all the action, including live streaming of the final 3 days of racing. Both the men's and women's classes will compete for the crowns. The 49er battle should be a great one, with home country sailors Jonas Warrer and Allan Norregaard both competing to come out on top in their home waters. For the 49erFX fleet, this is the first major championship ever, and a chance for crews from around the world to size each other up on their paths to Rio.
