This classic reference, (in print for almost 20 years) from one of the bestknown knot authorities and professional riggers, is as indispensable as ever. Whether you want to tie lines together, lash oars in place, attach a sail to a
boom or extend a towing line, the right knot is here, along with variations for
specific conditions. The presentation is invitingly simple, with step-by-step
illustrations and instructions that cover more than 65 knots, splices, belays and
coils, plus fancy work which transforms a plain knot into an adornment for
handles and wheels. Author Brion Toss explains knotting jargon and
encourages readers to develop a concise repertory of knots for their own dayto-
day boating routines. In addition, there are practical tips on safe winching,
proper tackle set-ups and rope-end whipping.
