The Stevedore's knot is a powerful stopper knot, like a super-charged Figure of Eight knot. 🔸 Make an overhand loop like you would in the figure-of-eight. Bring the working end round a couple of times instead of one (or just twist the loop) and tuck it through the original loop. Tighten Voilà! Easy! And even stronger than the Figure-of-Eight on video 2, although that is quicker to tie (just) if you are in a rush. 🔸 🔸 🔸 #sailing #multihulls #catamarans #knots #ropes #learnknots #learntosail #katschool #knot #rope #lovesailing #sailinglife #katamarans #stopperknot #katknots
TRAILER From Sailing Quarterly: Seamanship Vol. 1 Bill Biewenga explains how to gather weather information using your eyes, your boat's instruments and hi seas radio broadcasts. Learn from the clouds, the sea state around you, and changing patterns you observe. Refer to your instruments on board and gather information from outside sources. Then put the information together to see what might be headed your way and decide how best to route your boat.
