Training...

We started working with dock hands and first mates today on how to tie off the cruise boats... there are a lot of ways to tie a cleat knot, apparently, but only one of them is acceptable. We got to see many "alternatives," but in the end, they all came to understand why we tie off properly. Then, on to other useful knots on boats. I did more work on the cruise boat and added a few things to our rescue boat. Still waiting for water in the marina basin - we have an enthusiastic crew!
