MEMBERS & NON-MEMBERS WELCOME!
As part of our series on Marlinspike Seamanship‚ this class teaches the key knots that all sailors should know.

- A cleat hitch
- A double overhand stopper
- A reef or square knot
- 2 half hitches
- A clove hitch
- A sheet bend
- A rolling hitch
In this hands-on class‚ we will step through the procedure of tying and untying and show how you’ll know if you have tied a knot correctly.
We will talk about when and where a knot is well suited to a job‚ and when a knot is not the best choice for a given job.
And participants will leave with links and reference materials with which to practice.
