Knots, Bends, And Hitches for Mariners (Paperback)

From the Publisher: Cobranded with one of the nation's leading boating educators and richly illustrated with 200 fine drawings, this handy little how-to has something for every mariner. The essentials of the boater's repertoire are here-the bowline, the sheet bend, the clove hitch, etc.-but so are such lesser-known gems as the hawser bend, the cow hitch, and many more.
