🔍 Key Concepts

• Securing a person in a line so they can be safely lowered or raised • The difference between single-loop bowlines and multi-loop / around-the-body variants • Which knots create a secure seat or harness without tightening painfully under load

💭 Think About

• Think about which knot forms a secure seat or harness that supports a person’s weight rather than just attaching a line to them. • Ask yourself: which option allows a person to be supported at the waist or legs so both hands are free to work? • Consider which of these knots is specifically used for man-over-side, bosun’s chair, or rescue-type operations, not just for general-purpose securing of a line.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which knot forms two loops or a bight that can go around the body or legs for support. • Check which knot is non-slip under load but does not cinch tighter around the person like a noose. • Confirm from your notes which knot is recommended for hoisting or lowering a person where they may need to use both hands.
