Boating 101 cleating off your boat after a long day on the water is so important, how I almost lost a boat becasue I did it incorrectly. Learn from my boating mistakes that almost cost me my boat on America's Great Loop.
These are must watch videos for people looking to purchase a boat or who are new boat owners. I have learned so much about boating from watching these videos. I check youtube everyday to see what new video Paul has posted. He talks about the pros and the cons regarding boating. Thanks for sharing your boating knowledge.
Thanks brother
Good too see Coach Arians enjoying retirement lol
I agree , I have showed this to my wife over and over. Now I just recheck all the lines after the engines are off. Happy wife , happy life...😉
Thanks will work on that
Boating for 40 years, I learned a new lesson today
Why do you not do a full circle at the start? You immediately move to an over under on the horn, which I thought was incorrect.
Should be:
Wrap the base that is the furthest away from your starting point (boat)
Do a full wrap around the base
Go over then under the horn you started from
Create a loop away from your boat and pull taught
Is this wrong?
Seamanship skills and so important. Most people don't know how to throw a dock like properly.
I thought you would talk about why you should coil you line when leaving it on the dock.
Why am I watching this video? I don´t even have a boat, still, now I know somenthing new
You’re not alone, lots of us dreamers out here. Lol 😆
Man…to tell you the truth I never paid attention to which way I turn my half hitch..j I will definitely look at this differently the next time (which thank goodness is coming soon here in Wisconsin)
And the new trawler down by you Captain! Thanks for all your help!!
Glad to help
Great Tip!
Glad it was helpful!
Hope you are feeling better soon.
Me too
You are tying the knot correctly, but you need more wraps, especially with braided dock lines on slippery cleats. I have watched the knot you tied for us literally pull of the cleat with braided lines. You need to wrap the cleat twice, or better yet put another half hitch on(two total). If you lay the half hitches correctly they will always be removable.
Yes adding one more does make it much easier if you have to lay into one and really put it under load.
Been practicing with a 6” cleat and line I bought of of Amazon👍. Working on the bowline knot now, just about got that one too 😊
Hope you get that voice back soon take care 👊
That is awesome! thanks Tom
Noticed that at 3:12 I think you said the boat was cleated in a lock. Never a good practice for exactly the reason you stated: risk of boat loss and having to cut lines. We're gold loopers and boat on a river with locks. Learned this lesson early and never repeated the error. You might also look up and make a "Looper's Loop". Made it much easier for the admiral to drop a loop over lock bollards.
Thank you great video. Hope your voice is better by now 😊
Yes, thank you👍🏻🙏❤️😉
I always leave my lines at my dock so I tie up the same way every single time….
What do you do with the "bitter end" or the left over line? I have always coiled it up like you had there but some think that can create a dock tripping hazard.
Fantastic!
Many thanks!👍🏻🙏😉
THANK YOU FOR THE VIDEO
Thanks for watching 👍🏻❤️🙏😉
Great information
Glad it was helpful!

interesting
Thanks
Thanks Bro.😀
Welcome 😊
Since when do you tie off in a lock??
Yes that was a mistake in its self, but it happen and if I had tied of correctly i would not have had to cut the line. But no way should anybody tie off in any lock
Yes, when docking both ends can be tied off with knots that can be easily untied. In a lock NEVER tie off both ends.
My Man,
After being a Boy Scout, a rock climber for twenty-five years and sailor for fifty years who has owned ten sailboat and crewed on numerous other power and sail vessels, I can tell you that you don't really understand the concept of lashing you are trying to teach. You don't seem to actually know why your line would not release and you had to cut it, because the multiple half hitches you show as the purported way you tied up the boat would not have jammed. To the contrary, that technique is often used on sailboats when you want the line to come undone quickly, for sails, for tying to the dock, etc. The net effect of your video is that you explained that you did not know how to tie up the boat in the past, but now you kind-of do.
Also, putting the last half-hitch on "backwards" as you accuse your wife (or is it wives in general that you think are incompetent?) will not cause the line to jam. To the contrary, it will cause the line to not be secured. But that sloppy technique has less tendency to "jam" than a properly tied cleat knot.
