It is very fun to know a bunch of different ways to tie a bowline....I've worked on shipdocking tugs and sailed my own boat here and there....it is the situation that indicates which method to use. 'They say' you have to know how to tie one behind your back in a howling gale...and I've found that a useful skill during a couple of hurricanes, at anchor. No sailor ever forgets.....and surprisingly, a couple of years ago I had the occasion to need a monkey's fist...and though I had not tied one in about 25 years....it came to me just fine. Strange the way our minds work. -Veteran '66-68
Thanks, I've watched a half dozen YT videos on this knot and yours ties it up in the simplest and most understandable way!
I've seen my dad do this many times years ago; he was a lineman for the power company for many years until he retired. I've also seen him come from the top of a pole and clear it in two steps.
Thankyou! I was looking for a strong knot for towing cars in emergency situations! I think this is the perfect knot for me. Thanks for the how to!👍
FYI....A bowline knot reduces the strength of the rope by 40%.
All knots reduce the strength.
@@borysnijinski331 Yes they do. But...depending on the knot...they reduce the strength of the rope to varying degrees.
@thickock45 The knot under load cinches down so tight that it will actually cut the rope.
@thickock45 the strain is put on the fibers unequally. Every rope manufacturer advises this. As a rule of thumb, cut your safety margin in half, or more.
It’s called a tugboat bowline. Been tying it for yeeeeaaaarrrrssssss. Great knot!
I was gonna say that ain’t no bowline lol but you cleared that up
There is a third way. My Dad(Eagle Scout 1931 and WWII USCG CPO) taught me(Eagle Scout 1969 and 29 years US Army) the "save your own life" way when I was six. It is designed to handle the situation where you have fallen off ship and someone has thrown you a single line. With your left hand holding the running line you use your right hand to tie a bowline in about a second. I won many BSA knot tying contests in the 1960s with it. I taught hundreds of Boy Scouts, US Army soldiers and even some Force Recon Marines how to do it.
With the line pulled around you, grasp the line so that it runs inside your right index finger and sticks out a couple of inches beyond. In the slack area between your left hand and your body, hit the rope with your right hand and twist your wrist in a clockwise motion. This forms the loop and puts the end of the rope behind the "tree". With practice and speed you can get the end of the rope to go all the way back into the hole. Rote memory and muscle memory work well in emergencies when you don't have time to think. Good Luck, Rick
this guy is knot the man.....he knows knot what he sayin'n
The second knot is actually a "kind of" sheet knot. Which is very similar to a bowline. You can tell because the tail end is facing upwards on the 2nd knot. But I know how to actually do it when it's done right. And it's a good way to tie a bowline when you don't have to tie it around a post or chain link. This video explains it much clearer than I can in text th-cam.com/video/ozskWrDM-F4/w-d-xo.html
This is called a tug or flying bowline & has 2 major drawbacks. First you can't tie it around anything unless you take the time to figure it out but you sacrifice time for it. A normal bowline can be tied almost as fast as the flying version if you start it the right way aka overhand knot into the finish. Lastly this knot is used almost solely in maritime uses for throwing over a bollard or tug capstan. If you take the time to figure this one out the long way you can tie it as an exploding bowline that unties clean. If you tie a standard bowline as an exploding or bow finish you are still left with a half hitch when you untie & it fouls.
It’s actually a tugboat bowline to be precise. Nice knot :)
what would be the purpose of doing it this way that being not around anything ?
I took a sailing qualification course years ago, so I can rent boats on vacation. One class was on the bowline, rather incredibly in my opinion. The longest and most depressing hour I’ve spent not getting paid. I was one of two people in the room that knew how to tie any knots at all. Not only could they not tie they couldn’t learn how to do it. Even one on one it was near impossible. I had no idea just how mysterious rope could be.
In the scouts too and learned them temporarily. Now 54 years later with a boat had to relearn them just be able temporarily. Will never be knot king. But...just remember if you don't know how to tie a knot....tie alot. Sometimes in the heat of knot battle at the dock I lose and tie alot.
I've taught many Scouts over many years, using many different methods. Some, will just never get it.
Animatedknots.com Helps my fire academy students visualize during their practice. They learn it long enough to pass a test at the end of 15 weeks. But it's all about repetition and application. You won't learn it if you don't have to, need to, or most notbly rely on it for a paycheck.
All the knot tyres on TH-cam show how to tie knots but no one shows them in use ??
I can tie a bowline the regular way all day long, and use it fairly frequently. But, getting it the right size, the right place on the rope, or tying it around something is an entirely different matter.
Seth, to tie bowline around yourself, or around someone else, learn the one-handed bowline... used for rescues, helicopter evac., rock limbing, etc (and yeah, I've been there...AND former scoutmaster in later years...) Google it, you'll find it. Hold rope in one hand, rope behind you...other hand does all the "tieing". Super fast and easy.
I worked at a furniture store when I was 16 and most of my Saturday and Sunday shift was spent carrying hardwood table tops out to that's cars and tying them to the roofs of their cars. A co-worker showed me the bunny around the tree knot on my first day and I used it 30 or 40 times every shift for two years and really didn't connect it with a bow line. We used it to tighten the two main ropes by cinching them together with a short rope with the bowline, then secured that with a square knot.
I have tagged myself in the family jewles attempting this but it's a great way to tie this quick! Thanks for the info man
🤣🤣🤦♂️
The knot was only defending itself 😄
I think it gets lumped in the bowline category because it can be tensioned and still be broken down easily. If you need a fast loop for a bollard, it works great. Just like the bowline, you can put a stick between the loops, pull the hell out of it, and break the stick to release tension.
Also used extensively in climbing, leaving a long tag line for tying a prusik around the working end, looped over a branch or carabiner. Been using it for over 40 years.
I have been looking down on this as only suited for marine use with heavy and thick lines, but if you’ve been betting your life on it for forty years, I’ll re-evaluate.
Looks easy enough when holding the rope like that. But it’s harder to follow along if you are actually tying the rope to a hold down where you need to loop the rope through a hold down ring or tie down anchor.
The second knot you Are making is very different from the bowline you made to begin with, Why do you present it as a bowline??
Cool knot but def not a bowline on the second knot
@@ironman549
Try it as he demonstrated it’s a bowline .
@@thalesnemo2841 yes, but the result looks a bit different…
@@01blaval
How? It has a Camel’s back and does not slip.
@@thalesnemo2841 That’s right, and it’s a kind of bowline, and it’s working the same way. But it’s not the traditional bowline.
So simple!! Thanks for sharing!
🤯🤯🤯😁
I'm so excited to have stumbled upon this video
I work on fishing boats, i was taught the first way. My dad was in the navy and he ties his bowline using the second method
We used it the first way normally. Please re-read my comment. "Used for emergency tying in a hurry."
th-cam.com/video/ozskWrDM-F4/w-d-xo.html
I used that knot 35 years ago in the Navy. I called it a speed bowline. Easy to tie on the fly.
👍😊
I started out by accidentally pulling the left loop through the right hand (backwards)...and it created another type of knot that is tight, but adjustable.
By doing it wrong on my first attempt, I learned two fast knots.
Thanks!
Erik Nyman 👍😂
Not any method stand alone could be regarded as the best or the worst; a certain method is preferred over the rest depending upon a situation. Factors like what kind of rope you have, what and where you going to tie and more than all what is state of your own body i.e. are you on the ground or hanging, still or moving, can use both hands or not and so on...
That trick knot is not a bowline. In a bowline the tag end will be inside the loop when the knot is finished. Also, try tying that trick knot around a post or stationary object as you would normally use a bowline for! Cool video though.
Yesss, a loop but surely not a bowline!
A merchant marine taught me that second method for using mooring lines. There are actually 109 ways correctly tie that knot.
Would love to see as many as possible!
There is no such thing as a merchant "marine" . There are merchant mariners, or merchant sailors, but they are NOT Marines.
@@garypeterson3628 share.icloud.com/photos/0ruzXlHAgiug6X1iO6Rt7OLDQ
Excellent, thank you!
Knot sure... how anyone could have given a thumb down to this video. Your method is brilliant
👍😊
Looks like a NASCAR garage door pull
This is a flying bowline, tug bowline or a chain bowline and best used when making a quick loop in a chain to drop over a bollard or other anchor point.
Pretty sure that knot is called the perfection knot. For making a loop similar to a bow line but better for a midline loop. Not how I tie it but seems quick. I learned to make both loops and pass the short end between before pulling one loop through the other.
Also called a tugman’s bowline. I’ve used it for decades. Recently was taught the perfection loop for fly fishing leaders in monofilament. Discovered it is the same knot I use for a quick loop in a docking line. .
The second knot shown in the video is not a bowline. The live end and the tail do not exit the knot tailing down on a bowline
Wow, it worked!! Insane 😆
👍😊
My dad a Navy vet WWll showed me how to do this one handed on myself. Over twist around the rist and pull back.
All props to your Dad! This is by far the easiest and quickest method. My own Dad, an Army Air Force veteran, taught this to me when I became a Cub Scout.
Thanks, Dad. Those knots have served me well through all these years.
popular with divers too , tied that way as you can still hang onto something with the other hand at the same time.
This was one of the best knot tutorials I’ve seen.
Augustine Schaefer 👍😊
3.5 minutes to show a 1 second bowline...speed it up, dude.
CORRECTION what you are showing is called a tugboat bowline. The United States Coast guard teaches knot-tying and a regular bowline can also be tied in one second or less, but the two knots are different. The tugboat bowline is only used on howser 2 inch and larger, because your hands aren't big enough to tie a regular bowline, but in normal line handling, the bitter end is grabbed within about 8 inched and you flip flop it around and can tye a regular bowline in less than a second. I spent six years in the United States Coast guard.
3 minute video to show a one second knot🤔
That's great but what if you have to tie it around something like a block and tackle?
Exactly, a premade bowline is great for throwing over a stanchion or cleat but when you have to go around a pole or tree you use the rabbit comes up through the whole around the tree back down the hole method :)
Use a flying bowline, th-cam.com/video/ozskWrDM-F4/w-d-xo.html at 4:16
I thought the bowline had the tag end facing the loop? It does in the slow demo but not the fast one.
Looks like a perfection loop
Matt, you are correct. In his haste to demo he does not dress the knot into the proper shape. This adds a step, and more time. There is at least one superior method to quickly tie a bowline, without all that silly rabbit and hole claptrap.
@@leehaelters6182 Agreed! I always tie my bowline single-handed, and it takes under 3 seconds. Plus, I don't have to set my beer down. ;)
@@throngcleaver, the best incentive!
I learned to tie it that way while in the Army and in Jungle Warfare Training in Panama. My instructor was lightning fast at it.
It's so amazing!!! I could need this video so that I could past the test👌👍👏😀
th-cam.com/video/ozskWrDM-F4/w-d-xo.html
I’m finding the videos rather amazing, since many of the knots I’ve learned came from studying pictures in an old dictionary. My essential knots I learned either from my dad or my sailing instructor. Thanks, and keep ‘em coming
Kevin Hartzog 👍😊
3 minutes and 30 seconds to show how to tie a 1 second bowline.
Lol
Awesome, well done; thanks!
👍😊
pretty cool !!! ... thanks !!!
That is not a bowline. The working part is coming out the wrong end. It should be coming out alongside the part of the loop.
My buddies get a kick out of how I do this bowling. Lol. This is used s lot off shore. Well done brother
Bowling offshore eh ? That sounds tricky lol
Bow line, not bowling
It is a perfection loop, commonly used in fly fishing. Actually stronger than a bowline and makes a slightly different shaped loop. Used to use it when I worked on a towboat (not tug) pushing barges up and down the Tennessee River. Useful for emergency tying in a hurry.
What do you mean stronger? As in less likely to slip?
But more difficult to untie.
@@mankybrains, a good point. I do not expect that it increases the breaking strength.
@@leehaelters6182 When in a hurry because a shipmate has fallen overboard, that doesn't matter and it is not much more difficult to untie. With leaders it is tied with monofilament it is really difficult, but a bowline will untie itself.
@@kenwintin3014, agreed all!
Fine if you can slip the loop over something, but most times you can't do that. But in those situations it's a great technique.
An excellent point!
Sorry, not a bowline. That’s an anglers loop aka a perfection loop which some people believe is superior to the bowline. Best way to tie a perfection loop I have ever seen. Thanks
That’s a long second
3 and half minutes to show 1 second knot.
God bless Thank you for presenting that
👍😊
Learned it at the age of 12 in Boy Scouts. 1.5 seconds.
Learned it before Boy Scouts from Dad. Is that 1.5 one-handed?
You don’t know what 1 second is do you?!
Will finally get to practising lesson one first. Many thanks, great lesson.
Sometimes called a "Flying Bowline." Its an "Anglers knot" or "Perfect Knot., not a "Bowline." Unlike the Bowline, you can't easily untie it after its been under strain.
Not a perfect. I have load tested a perfect with about 350 lbs, still unties like a bowline.
Tanx bro for ur vedio..quick and is very easy🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩God bls.
Lol! That’s not a bowline. That’s an anglers knot or a perfectionist knot. It’s a fantastic knot but not a bowline.
Actually, it is a tugboat knot, or a tug knot (look it up). Faster than a bowline but just as good
Ah youtube…where arguing about knots is normal…
Lol it’s a bowline knot… anglers knot you have a second loop going through the first loop… 🤣
Don’t know what tug boat knot you’re looking at but far from it as well. You looked up wrong sources.
How does that work if you're tying that around another object?
Then you the a running bowline
We called that throwing a bowline
“Best kept secret?”
Best yet!
I have seen this method before while attending wood badge .
I think the bowline is one of the most difficult knots to get down because of the numerous methods and dexterous movements . My own method is relatively slow but gets the loop right every time making the rest pretty simple. My advice is to pick one method and stick to it
Not a bowline! As others have pointed out, this may be used with very thick lines in marine situations, and maybe have its own virtue, but following your lead, a viewer will have a mess of a knot, if he is expecting “a loop that will not slip nor jam”. Let’s see if I can describe a better method using only words.
As in the video, grasp the line with both hands, thumbs outward. Standing part in your left, holding the running end in your right. Now adjust your grasp with the right hand: keep the pinky and ring finger holding the rope, but extend the “bird” and the index into the classic finger-gun shape, supporting and gripping the running end.
Next, take that hand, cross over and grab from above the standing line beyond your left hand. If you twist and pick up a loop, you’ll find your fingers poking through with the running end. At this point it should be easy to see where to guide that running end around and down, back through the loop it came from.
With a little practice, this has the virtue of being tie-able around your body with one uninjured hand, say, in the case of someone tossing you a rescue rope.
That second knot he ties is not a bowline knot, it's more like a butterfly knot
Cool!
That's not a bowline. That's an anglers loop.
Not a bowline. Close, but no cigar. Might be useful but since I'm not familiar with it ... I'm not trusting it.
Anglers call it a Perfect Loop. It works better than a bowline on smooth nylon.
Great instruction! God Bless!
Why must someone always bring fictional God into everything?
Brilliant many thanks
Quint in JAWS
??? I just tried this, and it's not a bowline. It's not a bad knot as far as I can see, it won't jam or break (I think), but it's _definitely_ not a bowline!
Awesome
Awesome, very sailorly
It's not a bowline it's a tug boat bowline and if you flip the rope over twice you get a double dragon loop
Cost me a 6 pack to learn to tie a dragon bowline!
I have taught the Dragon bowline to many gullible people over the years! :)
My God...did you have a migration going up and down the stairs?
How to tie a bowline in one second. Video run-time? 3:31
My exact comment.
Thanks
Most Impressive!
👍😊
Flying bowline
It may serve the same function as the bowline, but it's a different knot.
Looks neat, but it's NOT a bowline knot. The tag end is supposed to come out in the eye (loop).
I am third generation captain. Face plant.
Thank you youtube
the 'flying bowline' is not the same as a proper bowline. it looks like it, though. we used to win bets throwing the knot. we worked on old sailboats.
awesome quick trick/.... problem is: rarely does one tie a bowline and then put it around something... no one ties it loose... It is usually wrapped around an object... dock pier, bar, horses neck, your own body.... and then tied... your trick does not work where the knot is typically tied.
There's another way that allows you to tie a perfect bowline, blind.
Can that be tied running? Pinch and twist is my go to. X over, twist, back and down. That was quick tho
Usually a bowling is used to tie through things but this is cool for hooking onto things for sure!
jeremiah white 👍😊
You end up with a cowboy bowline?
I prefer the first method but I sold my boat, still happy I don't have her.
I don't own a boat, but I have used a bowline many times around the property.
⚓️👍👍 Thanks ! 🤛🤛⚓️
Dope. Worthless.
Try doing that for a double bowline
The Moana Knot (Flying Tugboat Bowline) second knot
That's the knot that maui ties in the movie Moana.....pretty cool

Its a tug bowline at the end.
Thank you
Raymond Perez 👍😊
It might work, but it makes a small loop!
