Some nice winter sailing for Tony and crew this week, with a well-timed return to Largs today before some heavy rain. Part of our sailing training on the west coast of Scotland. Great to get out on the water and make the most of the weather. Thanks to the crew for the video! #gowestsailing #sailscotland #RYATraining

How to tie a Double sheet bend. #katknots. ▫️ The double sheet bend joins two ropes of different thicknesses well especially if they are wet. Also known as the double flag bend. Make sure both working ends are on the same side when completed. It's stronger that way. ▫️ Form a bight (loop) with the thicker rope. Keep the end up top. ▫️ Thread the thinner line through the loop as shown and then round behind the thicker rope. ▫️ Pass the working end of the thinner line round the neck of your loop. Then tuck the thinner line back under itself twice. It's quicker but not as strong. ▫️ An example of when you might use this knot: attaching a heaving line to a mooring line so it's easier to throw ashore. ▫️ #multihulls #sailing #catamarans #sailinglife #knots #sailingknots #ropes #bestknots #multihull #knot #boats #yachts #catamaran #rope #instaknots #seamanship #sheetbend #katamarans #flagbend #doublesheetbend

Could the Octopus be the product of a cosmic seeding and proof of Alien life on earth? 👽 Taking a major jump in evolution during the Cambrian Explosion, the Octopus developed features that appeared quite suddenly within the evolutionary landscape. These features included: 🧠 A large brain and highly advanced nervous system. 🤸 Flexible bodies. 👁️ Keen eyes which focus similar to a camera lens and see beyond the human eye in their ability to detect the polarization angle of light. 🐙 The ability to instantly change color, texture and shape to camouflage within their surround. 👖 Their transformative genes which led from Nautilus to Cuttlefish to Squid to the common Octopus are not easily found in any preexisting life form. Do you crave dive travel adventures, diving into beautiful Caribbean blues to encounter aliens errr' Octopus?
