Some people buy a boat before knowing what it takes to sail and maintain it. Different rig options require more or less physical labor. For example, we have slab reefing allowing us to sail faster due to a fully battened main HOWEVER we have to climb into the boom to straighten the sail before covering it. Alternatively, having a main that can be furled requires much less effort (but the boat goes a wee bit slower). Make sure you are happy with what it takes to make a boat work…with so many options, there’s a right boat for you. :) #sailinglife #sailing #sailboat

Bowline Knot is the most useful and most popular knot in the world of sailing – it is easy to tie, but also to untie. It is, however, extremely firm and secure. Watch more How to tie videos: https://www.sailingeurope.com/blog/sailing-knots Learn how to tie a Bowline Knot: Step1: Form a loop Form a loop by simply crossing the two sides of the line. Step 2: Line through the rope At this point, you should have two ends – a free and a standing one. As you’ve made the loop, bring the free end of the line through the rope (as some like to say – the rabbit comes out of the hole). Step 3: Wrap it Wrap it around the standing end and bring it back through the loop (the rabbit goes around the tree and then back into the hole). Step 4: Tighten Tighten the knot by pulling both ends.
