Yes, I was planning on asking about the Halyard Knot as well. I too have never heard of it ? This is a great Link !! I also thought there was only 1 proper cleat Hitch as shown for the Halyard Cleat Hitch. The Cleat Hitch for deck I have also never seem. Now if I can get the best video for the Double Braid eye Splice. I would like to give it a go. Thanks again.

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. https://www.animatedknots.com/indexboating.php<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.animatedknots.com%2Findexboating.php&data=02%7C01%7C%7Cdd2f45a7ff954c7523a708d6458e7b0b%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C636772875576129395&sdata=Fxqv7cNAxBP1Qkz33tm%2BIzGiBYQ15nhJHvhemjJPSWc%3D&reserved=0> Neil Schiller 1983 C&C 35-3, #028, "Grace" Whitehall, Michigan WLYC On 11/8/2018 9:32 AM, Hoyt, Mike via CnC-List wrote: Hi Neil Can you send a link to where I can see how to tie “Halyard Knot”?

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.
