So glad to see you are teaching the “roll” or twist to keep the line from adding a twist!! And, keeping simple because you can over think that. I learned that technique in media production classes with audio cable which you HAVE to do or you have a twisting, looping nightmare. Same technique works great too on water hoses, various electrical cords, etc. Flat electrical cords I recommend actually rolling hand over hand to keep from adding twists. Interested if anyone handles that differently… Love the little over loop at the end. Will incorporate that next time. 👍👍

You could totally nail a Michael Caine impression...imagine, "Seamanship With Michel Caine"...hilarious, you have to do at least one video like that!

Figure 8 coiling for the long braided line is the only way to go if you don't want a knotted mess when you're ready to use it. Thank goodness for editing, your first coil wrap looked like a real mess. Other wise, not too bad. First days are the toughest! You'll catch on.Lol

I don’t have a boat, but I have been coiling my extension electrical cords like this for over 30 years. It drives me batty trying to get people to do this. It saves so much time in the long run

Any suggestions when your solo pulling out of your slip/Well at the marina specifically when the wind is pushing you into the boat next to you. What lines do you take off first bow? Stern? Very informative.

Nice boat

@justaddwata 4 года назад

imparting twist into the rope to coil and store it will mean it will have twist in it when you uncoil it. Try it with an even less forgiving garden hose and you will see what I mean. Rather than introducing twist - let the rope follow its own path as you coil it to your left hand. Still stores the same but wont end up wanting to kink as you try to use it next time.

@IrregularPineapples 3 года назад

yeah this is a bad tutorial, you want a figure 8 kind of coiling going on.

you spend all that money on a boat and don't look after one of the thing that keep the boat safe If you don't mind Mr Mendez . When saltwater evaporates its leaves the salt still on and inside the rope ,to get rid of the salt wash it out with fresh water as the salt is an abrasive and is inside the rope and will cause damage over time

you may get to this question hopefully. i did ask in another video... your life vest and accessories, can you provide some info on them please. Frank from down under

@djmini2numpty141 Год назад

hi again........ love some feedback

@joentexas Год назад

Reading some of the comments it appears some didn't get the part about rolling the line as it's coil. Rolling the line as it's coiled will eliminate any chance for kinks to form. Good stuff. Thanks.

Is that a personal Epirb on his belt? Is this a good investment ?

Good tutorial but at the same time a bit ropey. My boat only has sheets, lines, warps and halyards on board. My garden has a rope for the washing line.

@salty-pete 2 года назад

In that case it isn't a rope it's a line.

@Chris-the-Saxon 4 года назад

My opinion never wrapp the rope round the coil, it can create kinks and a mess, personally I teach and use the method once coiled create a bite, twist and thread through the coil then thread the tail through the bite (loop), then secure the coil with the tail. Each to their own but that's the way the old school boi s showed me when I was a deck boy!

See what you did there ;-)

@seasickcaptain5249 4 года назад

I just usuially use my arm and hand to coil it.

@thaitom449 4 года назад

Seriously...if people can't cool rope they shouldn't be at sea. Also with regards to which way to cool it depends on wether the rope is left hand or right hand twist

@edwardkawecki8101 4 года назад

I cool my lines in a bucket of ice water! lol I'm sure you meant coil not cool.
