The EBDB Bowline, End Bound Double Bowline, is a variation of the
                   Classic Double Bowline (ABoK # 1013), which is itself a step up in security.
                   It is therefore not only more secure but also has the vitue of being easy to tie.

                   The EBSB +Y Bowline, End Bound Single Bowline plus a Yosemite finish,
                   was developed not only to be more secure but also to resist Ring Loading
                   and consequently reinstate the Bowline as a prominent climbing knot.
