#katknots The Clove Hitch versus the 🥨 Ground-Line Hitch. Which is your favourite? Both are great for tying fenders to guardrails, the Ground-line is a little more secure, but there's not much in it. 🔸 For both, wind the rope around the rail and cross over diagonally. There is a slight difference where you tuck the working end between the hitches. 🔸 Both knots are easy when you get the hang of them. You can make a bight (loop) in the working end before the very last tuck for a quick release version. 🔸 Head to https://kats.co/kts for more knot videos. 🔸 #sailing #multihulls #catamarans #knots #ropes #hitch #groundhitch #learnknots #learntosail #katschool #knot #rope #lovesailing #sailinglife #clovehitch
