How to tie a Portuguese Bowline on the Bight - from http://www.SelfMadeSailor.com - An interesting combination of a Portuguese Bowline and a Bowline on the Bight creating 4 loops in the bight of a rope. I'm not sure if this is the formal name for it or not as I made this one up myself (I'm sure this isn't a new/unique knot though) while playing with tying bowlines... If you know the proper name for it, please let me know!

  • You could use this for say, if you have a double sided trailer hitch, although good luck getting the rope to stay on without tension

  • this is perfect for a tree house my lil bro and i have a tree house that raps around a tree and has a door on the botom

    we used to use a ladder and then we watched thei and made it on the tree soo we can climb up and pull it up soo no one can get to us
