Thanks for this video. I live in France, and I confirm I have always been taught the second version of the cleat hitch, with the full wrap... On many videos on YT, only the first version of the knot is described as the "good ones"...

I have a gortex drysuit that has a cloth booty sock built in . I use it for watersport were i use foot straps my idea was to buy oversize wetsuit boots and have these over the top , this was not the best of ideas was bad fit . Could i remove the fabric material boot and swop with rubber seals not boots . If so what glue would i use latex to gortex suit . Thanks

But you show a "wrong" bowline because the free end of the line is inside the loop. This is not good because movements of the loop at a capstan can open the knot. In the right way zhe free end shoud be outside the loop.

Thank you for the excellent coaching and explanation. I had just tied my laser on its maiden voyage with a half wrap a bit loose and was derigging and suddenly I was floating away. Now using full wraps from now on, thanks to you

My dad always taught us the full wrap --- half wrap had a big red X on it in our book of knots. Multi wrap was specifically described for use by thin or "synthetic slick" line in that book.

I started doing a cleat hitch on a RYA sailing course and was told just to OXO it. Seems like OXO is preferred in most cases.

So.....Wrap the base of the cleat, thats where the friction is. More wraps, more security, especially with small line on a larger cleat. Minimum half, full for overnight, but two loops around the base is best. The figure-8 is just to finish it off. Wrap twice, twist a loop and lock it. Dress the end.

The cleat hitch mystery is why videos like this convey their way is the only correct way. The truth is there are multiple correct methods, and anyone who tells you otherwise has not traveled or is a narcissist. In Sturgeon Bay Wisconsin, the area boaters know as Door County, the standard is a wrap followed by three figure 8’s with no tuck at the end, with the remaining bitter end of the line braided, never coiled. Everyone uses it, everyone understands it, and visitors are quickly schooled on the local method. This area gets coast guard vessels, the occasional Navy vessel which are manufactured across the bay in Marinette WI, Great Lakes tugboats, plenty of Great Lakes comercial and recreational fishing vessels, tour boats, the occasional Great Lakes freighter which tend to use looped ends on giant posts not the cleats, and recreational sail and power vessels. The method I described above is the method enforced by staff at all private and public marinas and government owned jetties, piers, and wharfs. Use any other method and the staff will soon correct your method for you. Travel over to the marinas in Michigan and you will see all sorts of methods. No APS, your method is not wrong, but it’s not the only correct method. A wrap followed by three figure 8’s is a perfectly valid line cleat method.

Well the one problem with full cleat hitch is if you start it from the normal side (like in the video and as I understand the only proper side) than you finish it in the “wrong” way away from yourself so you have to sit down and pull it against your foot to finish it off 😢😢😢
@Bakanelli Жыл бұрын
I figured it out that after the full wrap is made that you can go around one additional horn so that way you change the direction of the pull to yourself 🤪

In addition to drying away from sunlight and UV rays, you should also mention to not use your regular thin hanger for hanging it up. You should get a wetsuit specific hanger that has broader shoulders and will prevent too much stretching, or drape it over something at the waist.

Good afternoon and thank you for this informative video. I have a question about how these work. I have 2 - 17' x 4' metal frames with 8 solar panels each. The frames are set on poles so I can turn them from East to West all day every hour. As far as just keeping the wind from turning them I need to know if I used just 1 section of rope attached to each side of the frames would these cleats keep the rope held in place or is this a one direction type of thing? I would really appreciate an answer if you have the time. Thank you!
@apsltd Жыл бұрын
If I understand that is is one loop of line with each end secured to either end of the swiveling frame, you could use two cam cleats to adjust the swivel and securely cleat it in place. Yes. Cam cleats hold on only one direction.

@pat55378 Жыл бұрын
That second "full wrap" cleat hitch can lock up under high load where you "close the wrap" and make it a royal PIA to get it undone. Yes, it's more secure, yes it jams the line, no I won't ever use it on my boat.
@apsltd Жыл бұрын
I get your thinking, but…. Actually the loaded wrap gets pulled deeper and the second wrap stays more to the top on a traditional horn cleat such that the more load the less the two lines bind.

Can we see you secure a 4” poly hawser to an H bitt or 3” nylon dock line to a deck bollard? That should be interesting.
@scomo532 Жыл бұрын
Sorry, but I prefer a wrap, a hitch and finish with several wraps around the base of the cleat. You can finish with a figure 8 if you like. Wrapping the cleat before you tie a hitch may not allow you to free the line after it has been stressed. Wrapping after to apply the hitches will secure the vessel and allow you to free the line when you’re ready to. They’re a back up.
