This knot is called a round turn and two half hitches. And the round turn of two half hitches is a fantastic knot for tying on fenders. This is a short lesson from our Catamaran sailing Masterclass knot tying lesson. http://masterclass.nautilussailing.com It's also a great knot for tying your dinghy up to a piling. So here are the steps to do a round turn and two half hitches. You go all the way around your stanchion or the dock post, leave quite a bit of tail. So there's our round turn we like to go over and you come back through that triangle, tighten it up, and the second time we come under. And then back over and that tightens it up. And that's a clean looking round turn, two half hitches. And you can see how that is a real strong, solid knot that's gonna hold your fenders or your dinghy to a dock.
It has been busy at Lyman-Morse. This week we installed both the deck for the Hood35LM and the LM46. The Hood35LM is a 35' express motoryacht with a cold-molded hull with a carbon deck. The LM46 is the second hull in this cold-molded performance cruiser series. Both are scheduled for a late-spring launch. We look forward to sharing more soon. Much credit goes to the crew who made this process look easy!
