(Translation: He doesn't know how to tie a bow knot) My six year old
grand daughter has the same problem.




And, poor ole grandfather doesn't even know sailors call it a bowline knot.
Or do you perhaps wear a bow in your hair?

LOL

Willie, it can't be a bowline now, can it? It has two "bows" in it so
it must be a double bowline? And since it isn't tied in the end of a
line it must be in the bight so a "double bowline in a bight"?

You certainly are losing it, aren't you.

Cheers,
