Mooring hitch
Once mastered, the mooring hitch can be quickly
tied in the bight and dropped over a post or bollard.
More secure than a clove hitch and not as vicious as
a constrictor knot, it is well worth adding to your
repertoire of regularly used knots.
1 Put a bight in the line and twist it to make two elbows, the top one
larger than the lower one.
