VIDEO - How to Tie a Bowline

Learn how to tie the most important knot for sailors, the Bowline, with Captain Paul. The bowline knot creates a non-slipping loop that can be easily untied regardless of the strain put on the loop. Bowlines can be used to attach sheets (lines that control sail trim) to the sails that they control, to attach halyards (lines that pull sails to the top of the mast) to sails, to tow dinghies and much more!
