Mike,

Here is a good visual link to several useful knots.  In all my years of sailing (and tying loads while working in a lumber yard) I had not discovered the halyard knot.

Hi Neil

Can you send a link to where I can see how to tie “Halyard Knot”?  I would like to use that instead of bowline on my jib halyard

After buying a sheet and halyard kit from Cajun Ropes that came with loose ends, I have attached them with halyard knots and never had a hang up on shrouds or baby stays.  The only thing that we get hung up on occasion is the forward hatch. I have found the halyard knot to be much better than bowlines anduse them for the main outhaul and reefing line as well.  On our old Redwing 35, we had a continuous jib sheet with a luggage tag knot.  Both boats have separate spinnaker sheets so all we have to do is collect them up and tie them up on the bow pulpit.

All covered up and tucked in before the snow flies this week.
