Boat knots, hitches and loops! #knots #nautical #boating #clovehitch #sailing

When you pull into a dock, the fenders gotta come out to protect that shiny hull!
🪢Clove Hitch
A very common way to quickly secure fenders to safety lines, or stanchions.
🪢Slipped 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 don’t use either of the above because we find they can work their way undone if the fenders shift about. We’ve 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:
🪢Jibsea Constrictor
Sort of just came up with this one as we wanted one that would tighten up on itself.
So I guess it’s our version of the Constrictor Knot!

We’re Steph and Travis, a Canadian couple 🇨🇦 who bought a 1990 Hunter 42 Passage and turned our dream of sailing the world into reality. We set sail from Toronto with no sailing experience and and left everything behind for a minimalist JIBSEA Life on the big pond! We move quickly and have been winging it day by day!
