Absolute best bowline shortcut video anywhere. No fluff, no ridiculously long explanation. Short, easy, done.

i saw this video about 8 years ago, and i use this knot on my boat SO MUCH. it's so simple, fast, and super strong and easy to release. it's always my starting knot on my boat trailer. although the video doesn't show it, sometime a quick snap like that will not lock the knot - and you have to lock it yourself.... if you'd done this knot a few times, you know what i mean!

One of the best & easiest bowline methods ever!

finally - a video that clicked for me! you rock Captain Dave!

Excellent demonstration by an actual seaman!

5star video that will help me become a parachute rigger

This is a running bowline using a Marlin Spike Hitch. It's the best. Great tutorial.

that's the most easy way and easy to remember of making bowline! thanks man!

Got it. Old dog learning new tricks. Thanks

Took me some time to figure out on which end to pull, but I got it. Really a time saver. Thanks!

Best bowline video I have seen! Thanks

best bowline technique under pressure ! thank you

Thank you for knot ;) talking about Rabbits and showing a real in field way of how you will want/have to tie a bowline in real life....like a real sailor.

Fastest way to make the bowline knot. Thanks Cap!!!

Dave, where are you these days? Great memories of CN and the group.

...cool, very cool. now that is the coolest bowline video I've ever seen...

Gonna learn this. I have saw a couple of quick bowline videos but they woulf be too clumsy with big working gloves with cold wet hands. This looks more practical

Dang! Thank you!

Wow, right on! Thanks you.

Wow! Sooo fast. I keep ending up w a cowboy bowline which is great

Very good. It’ll become my 'party trick’.

Laid back ass kicker right there...known my share...thanks for the tip!
