We have sailed from St Martin in the Caribbean to Horta in the Azores. 28 days at sea, 2538 nautical miles, 1 broken lower shroud and an oil leak in the engine. We arrived safely in Horta, Faial, Azores and dropped anchor. A beautiful island with really friendly people. Thank you to all of you who support us. We really appreciate every one of you 😁❤️

Tankan are in season here in this remote Island, a designated World Heritage Site. A woman came by the boat, leaving me with two bags full. No transaction. Just abundance shared. Belonging often begins with proximity. Field notes from Buren Bay. #FieldNotes #Amami #WorldHeritage #Community #SlowTravel #Longevity

The Double Over Hand Knot is a variation on the Over Hand knot that creates a larger stopper by adding and additional loop in the main part of the knot. The larger stopper of the Double Over Hand Knot is useful for thinner lines which may slip through the cleat, pulley or eye that the rope is running through. For a full tutorial follow the link below. https://youtu.be/JJcNIHOLJVg Learning how to tie a double over hand knot only takes seconds, most sailors have most likely tied one even if they don't know what it is called. Another advantage the double over hand not has over the single is that it is more secure prior to any load being applied to it. This results in less chance of the double hand knot coming undo. The double loop of the knot also makes it easier to untie after load has been applied. 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.
