Sailor Pauli gives you a lesson on how to lasso a cleat hitch in this tutorial. Impress everyone at the dock. Check out my merchandise at my store: sailorpauli.cr...
Oh, well you should see my other videos where all the trolls were mad cause I didn’t give them a proper tutorial! This is how I do it all the time now. Thanks for watching!
I'm wondering is there ever need to these skills, if you arrive to the pier by boat and throw the rope around the hitch, isn't it better to tie it to boat side if you have both rope ends in your hands
Yes. I have two dock lines on my boat: bow and stern. I pull the boat off the trailer walking down the dock with the boat. In lasso cleat hitches on two cleats one at a time, rather than bending down and tying them. And it’s easy. Then when I sail back to the dock, I hop out onto the dock and lasso two cleat hitches again. Then I fetch the truck leaving the boat at the dock. Yeah. I do this every time now. Just because I can.
You know, come to think about it I never tie the boat to a dock from the boat. I usually hop out onto the dock holding the bow and stern docklines and then tie them. Check out my youtube short section. There’s more there.
The main issue I see here is that this is not in fact a correct hitch, the first loop around the horn should be the opposite direction. For a better lesson, check out Maryland School of sailing videos on hitch knot; Capt Tom Tursi will teach you right!
