The Double Sheet Bend is one of if not the best way to join to ropes of different diameter. You can learn how to tie a double sheet bend in less than two minutes. Here at Bottom Up Boat we prefer the Double Sheet Bend over the Single Sheet bend, the two loops around the bight give it key advantages over the single sheet bend. The two loops make the knot more secure before the knot has been put under load and easier to untie as the double loops cause the knot to tighten on the bight rather than the loop wedging itself at the top of the bend. The Bottom up Boats team recommend that you learn the single sheet bend, https://youtu.be/vKvJ3aKu43A , but always use the Double Sheet Bend as it is far superior. If the shorts version was to quick for you and you want a more detailed demo of how to tie the double sheet bend you can watch the full form version on the bottom up boats main channel. https://youtu.be/mQU20P-Idns If you like the Double Sheet Bend video you should click on the link below to watch out Know Knots playlist which has variety of knots that every sailor should know. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLMoCfFBA9IMUcOoZy5QT-o66DM8uHukkH Thanks for watching our YouTube Shorts video where we teach you how to tie the double sheet bend video and for reading on to learn more, if you learnt something along the way don't forget to subscribe getting the Bell on to ensure you are notified as soon we release our new content.

Originally designed as a fast cruiser and capable racing boat, the 42s7 comes with a very attractive and functional interior designed by Philippe Stark. The pear wood and curved shapes, multiple opening ports and generous headroom gives the impression of a much larger boat. The oval salon table comfortably fits 6 to 8. Being a First series boat by Bruce Farr Yacht Design, the 42s7 is a pleasure to sail and will perform very well in light air as well as gale conditions. This two cabin layout features a salon perfect for entertaining, with the galley that is out of the way, yet secure on passage. A pair of electric primary winches in the cockpit make sailing and getting the dinghy up easy! Boats setup to cruise internationally come with much more gear than what you’re used to seeing in marinas in the United States. Davits, dinghy, solar panels, fuel polishing, water maker, new generation anchors and heavy duty chain and windlasses. This 42S7 has it all! Save money on taxes and refit expenses by buying a boat already in Mexico ready to go anywhere! Jason cruised on his 50ft ketch in Mexico from 2015-2022, before going ashore in Banderas Bay and working for Infinity Yachts.
