When you pull into a dock, the fenders gotta come out to protect that shiny hull! đȘąClove Hitch A very common way to quickly secure fenders to safety lines, or stanchions. đȘąSlipped Clove Hitch Tied the same was as the clove hitch but pulling a loop through at the end This allows you to undo the hitch quicker. We personally donât use either of the above because we find they can work their way undone if the fenders shift about. Weâve been side-tied when the winds were howling and wanted to ensure those fenders stayed put during aggressive pushes into the dock and came up with our own: đȘąJibsea Constrictor Sort of just came up with this one as we wanted one that would tighten up on itself. So I guess itâs our version of the Constrictor Knot! Follow ââ @SailingJibsea for more sailing fun!
