Figure 10. Locking Bowline


               For complete security, especially in slippery plastic ropes, complete the bowline
               with  two  half  hitches,  as  illustrated.  This  “improved  bowline”  is  sometimes
               called the locking bowline. Figure 19a shows how to tie a basic half hitch.
