Tying a Bowline Behind Your Back!!!

In this short video we explain how to tie a bowline when you can’t see your hands. The bowline is one of the most commonly used knots in sailing or on sailboats. Many of us have learned the rabbit-hole-tree method, but I find that difficult to use when I can't see what I'm doing. With practice the method shown in this video can be done by feel, without the need to see your hands. To tie the bowline around an object using this method, simply pass the bitter end around the object before passing it back through the thumb loop (i.e. between steps 2 and 3) and pulling the knot over itself.

www.bootkaufberatung.de Mit einem Kunden, der einen großen Katamaran für nicht allzu viel Geld sucht, besichtige ich einen Fountaine Pajot Bahia 46. Stolze 14m lang und 7 m breit! Am Boot muss das ein oder andere gemacht werden, damit es ready ist für die Weltumsegelung und das ist natürlich nicht für jeden das Richtige - mein Kunde jedoch keine zwei linken Hände und Spaß am Werkeln. Wenn ihr auch Hilfe beim Bootskauf braucht, dann schreibt mir. #segeln #katamaran #segelboot

When you imagine sailing in Croatia, you probably think of peaceful bays, crystal-clear waters, and sunset dinners on deck. And yes — it’s all that. But for those craving a dose of pure adrenaline and unforgettable laughs, there’s something else waiting for you: crazy fun tubing behind a speedboat! During your sailing trip with Alitis Yachting, you can do much more than just relax — you can fly across the waves on an inflatable tube, towed by a powerful speedboat, all while surrounded by the stunning Croatian coastline. What Is Tubing? Tubing is one of the most exciting water sports out there. You sit (or try to hold on!) on a big inflatable tube while a speedboat pulls you across the sea. The faster it goes, the wilder the ride. Expect bouncing, splashing, spinning, and tons of laughter — especially when someone wipes out in a spectacular splash! It’s the kind of fun that brings out everyone’s inner child, and it’s always a highlight of the trip. How Does It Work with Alitis Yachting? If your crew is in the mood for high-energy fun, your experienced skipper from Alitis Yachting can help arrange everything. In agreement with the guests, the skipper can organize the rental of a speedboat equipped for towing water toys like tubes. In some cases, the skipper may even take the wheel of the speedboat himself, ensuring a safe and exciting ride — all while knowing the best spots for smooth water, fewer crowds, and maximum fun. And the best part? You don’t have to worry about logistics — everything is arranged for you, so all you have to do is hold on and enjoy the ride! Why Add Tubing to Your Sailing Trip? It’s the perfect balance of relaxation and adrenaline Great for groups and families — everyone can take turns Incredible for photos and videos (trust us — you'll want to watch the wipeouts again!) Totally optional, but easy to arrange with your skipper A unique way to experience the Adriatic from a whole new angle A Day You'll Never Forget One moment you're lounging on the catamaran with a cocktail, and the next you’re skimming across the waves at full speed, screaming with laughter. It’s this contrast — calm sailing mornings and wild water afternoons — that makes a sailing holiday with Alitis Yachting so much more than just a boat trip. So if you're ready to take your Croatian sailing adventure to the next level, ask your skipper about adding some tubing action to the itinerary. You won’t regret it — but your arms might feel it the next day! Adventure. Laughter. Waves. Tubing with Alitis Yachting: Just one more reason you’ll want to come back.
