🔍 Key Concepts

• A bowline on a bight is tied in the middle of a line (no free end used) and forms two side‑by‑side loops. • Compare it with a regular bowline, which has one loop and a clearly visible free end (the working end). • Look carefully at how many loops are formed and whether the ends of the rope are both on the same side of the knot or opposite sides.

💭 Think About

• Which letter shows a knot with two adjacent loops that could be used as a makeshift bosun’s chair or lifting sling? • Which illustration shows the knot tied in the bight (both ends continuing away), instead of using a single free end to form the loop? • Which option looks most like a regular bowline doubled back on itself rather than two separate ropes joined together?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify that the knot you pick has two loops, not one. • Confirm that neither end of the rope is being used to tie the knot; both appear as standing parts exiting the knot. • Make sure you are not choosing a bend (a knot that joins two separate lines) such as a reef knot or sheet bend.
