CHAPTER 5
5-14
If another line is dropped over yours, simply reverse the process. Secure
a little slack in the other dock line, then slip your eye up through its
loop and over the top of the pile. Your line can be dropped through
the other eye.
When debarking from a dock, it is easier to release the line from a cleat
or piling, from on board the boat, as soon as you leave the dock. Loop
a long line around the cleat or pier and leading both ends on board
you can release the line easily. Slip one end around the cleat or pile,
then pull it back on board. Release the line without the eye splice, so it
will run freely from around the pile without hanging up on the splice.
