Default Rope-a-dope

Hi Fellow Boaters;

Hot, dry weather in the rainforest areas of Vancouver Island, but had
the opportunity to enjoy Desolation Sound on the 'Miss Adventure' - two
names that make you check your boat and provisions twice!

Can any one give me a simple means of dealing with rope lengths around
the boat? My bow and stern lines are about 15' each and I'd like to
hang them in loose coils from the bow or stern rails, but they always
seem to tangle or come loose to fall in the water.

Any knots or gadgets you'd recommend. Thanks.
