TOP 10 useful knots that you should know!
Skills rigging is gradually disappearing as soon as the fleet enters technical progress. However, even the most basic skills of this ancient craft — knitting sea knots — can be invaluable in different situations.
Here are 10 nodes that are indispensable in Maritime transport, and in everyday life.
Reef knot
This site was used by the ancient Egyptians for three thousand years before our era, and ancient Greeks and ancient Romans. Reef knot — two Palouse consistently tied one over the other in different directions. If the load on the connected cables is very large, or the cables get wet, the node is much delayed, but even soaked and strongly tightened, loosened very easy, 1-2 seconds.
Flat knot
Has long been considered one of the most reliable knots for tying ropes of different thickness. Having eight weaves, flat knot, never much prolonged, not crawling and not spoil the cable, because it has steep bends and the load on the cables, the node is distributed evenly. After removal of the load on the rope, this knot is easy to untie.
Eight
This classic knot is the basis of half a dozen other, more complicated knots for various purposes. It can be used as a stopper on the end of the cable (in contrast to ordinary host, he even with a strong thrust does not damage the rope and its always easy to untie) or, for example, rope handles, wooden buckets or tubs. Eight even possible to fasten the strings to the groves of violins, guitars and other musical instruments.
Portuguese bowline
Used when you want to tie on one end of the two loops. For example, to lift the wounded man his legs are passed into the loops, and the root end (when knitting nodes are so-called suspension rope ends, and those ends around which can be bypassed very lines, referred to as indigenous) around the chest under the armpits fit-half-hitch. In this case, the person will not fall, even if unconscious.
Improved dagger site
Considered one of the best knots for tying two ropes of large diameter, as it was very simple in his scheme, and is quite compact when tightened. In a tightened state, two running end of both ropes sticking out in different directions. Dagger knot is easy to untie if you loosen one of the end loops.
The Flemish loop
Is a strong and easy to untie loop in the end of the rope being tied with a figure eight on the folded in half wire. The Flemish loop is suitable for binding both on thick and on thin ropes. She almost does not weaken the strength of the cable. In addition to Maritime Affairs can be used for mounting strings of musical instruments.
Flemish knot
Actually it's the same eight, but tied the two ends. Flemish knot — one of the oldest marine units employed on ships to connect the two ropes, thin and thick. Even being very lengthy, it does not spoil the cable, and it is relatively easy to untie.
Fishing bayonet
Five thousand years of existence of navigation people are unable to think of a more reliable knot for tying the anchor rope to the anchor than fishing a bayonet. This proven experience of seamanship node also can safely be used in all cases when working with cables, when they are subject to strong thrust.
Stopper knot
This type of marine unit is intended for increasing the diameter of the rope to prevent it slipping out of the block, as it is non-slip and securely holds. To stopper knot became even larger (for example, when the diameter of the hole through which the cable passes, is much larger than the diameter of the cable), you can tie a knot with three loops. Also, it can be useful when you need to make a comfortable handle on the end of a rope.
Noose
It has long been one of the most essential nodes in the sailing fleet. A noose was tied in the water of a log for towing, it was used for loading cylindrical shape items shipped rails and Telegraph poles. Moreover, this proven centuries-old experience of the sea has long been a node finds a use on the beach — no wonder many foreign languages it is called "forest site" or "log host". The noose with polostyami is a reliable and very strong knot that is extremely strong is tightened around the raised object.published
