REMEDIAL KNOT TYING
Captain John asked me how I was at tying knots. I found myself starting to say, I am absolutely miserable at knot tying, but realised that would be completely unacceptable verbiage from any of my students! Therefore, I corrected myself and replied, “I am knot challenged and would appreciate any tuition in that area.”
I am becoming proficient in the half-hitch and am starting on the bowline. Glenn, the First Mate, has also been very helpful in my knot tying education.
