#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
