priceless. SNL skit acting and he destroys the rope by pulling it across a splinter.
laughing out loud
That's how I have been shown how to tie our launches at work except I always wrap round the pile then round the cleat on the boat then do about 3 clove hitches
The best thing to do when you arrive at a marina with no cleats at the dock is to find a new marina.
Thanks for the laugh, Jim!
It sounds like you never had a boat my friend or you would have never made that statement.
Oscar nomination performances.
That’s probably gonna slip I’d put 2 havehitches to secure it after the clove hitch
Thanks for the tip, Dylan.
New amigo's here
Welcome!
How do you get your finger under the rope when its getting pulled by the tide?
Definitely put your line at the bottom of the post it puts less strain on it. I would only use a Clove hitch for a small
boat but even that can allways slip.
I would do two & half turns and half hitch or if on a yacht do a Bowling knot just to be safe.
Thanks for watching and for your feedback.
You do know this was for demonstration purposes right
That's why you would use a figure 8 knot so it wouldn't slip
id never trust my boat with a clove hitch ur crazy
Did he just ruin that rope?
Yep
Way to slow a method and frankly dangerous to put your fingers or hands in any knot when tying up a boat
Much better to use right over left.. ringht over left snap tight method
yea, he just bought that piece.
That will come undone...
This sounds like it was made in the 1950s. But thanks.
Pretty much! LOL. That was recorded in the early days of BoatUS video for RUclips. We do have an updated video: ruclips.net/video/rdweqVRrffQ/видео.html Thanks for watching!

Thanks, I was trying to show my grandson how to tie a clove hitch and I came upon your video.
I was a BoatUS member for many, many years. Insurance, Towing and even financing two boats . Great outfit, and I miss boating immensely .
Take care
@@n40tom Sorry to hear you're no longer a boater, but thank you for your past support. Hopefully you still have some friends with boats to "keep the gills wet," as my mother likes to say. And good for you for getting your grandson indoctrinated early! ;-)
The clove hitch is NOT a proper way to secure a vessel to a piling,,,,as a UNLIMITED TONNAGE CAPT of 38 yrs ...learn how to tie a line such as a bowline or a river hitch to start. Buy a book of knots....
Thanks for your input, Kim.
That is not a secure knot. I wouldn't tie anything with that.
I agree! So many better choices. And it can be quite difficult to untie. I was taught to always end with a half hitch when using a clove hitch. Maybe that's her next video?
