Mooring hitch
Knot cleat.jpg

Use: In order to secure the boat to a dock or secure a line to the boat you will probably use the cleat hitch.

How to tie:

  1. Take the line to the ear of the cleat furthest from where the line comes from the boat (or load).
  2. Take one wrap around the base of the cleat and then start a figure eight across the top of the opposite ear.
  3. Finish with a half hitch turned under so that the line is coming away from the cleat in the opposite direction from which it came in.
