Christine is running a workshop on a Tuesday night every other month, to learning different types of “knots” and learn parts of the boat, on the dates at the top of this poster.
Sailors learn many types of nautical knots because different tasks demand different combinations of security, adjustability, strength, ease of tying/untying, and suitability for rope type and conditions. A single knot cannot optimally meet every need on a vessel;
matching knot to purpose reduces risk, saves time, and preserves gear.
Understanding the names of the parts of the sailing boat is an essential part of your journey to sailing. If you're a beginner sailor, you want a quick and solid overview of the different sailboat parts this workshop is for you. If you are just curious about any part of
this workshop – why don’t you join us.
