RYA Pocket Guide to Boating Knots

Excellent reference to get up to speed with basic knots for sailing. Expensive for what it is but we’ll presented and easy to use & follow.

Good book if you own a nboat , knots come in handy :)

I have to smile when folks complain this booklet is overpriced. It is rather expensive for what you get. But I think that’s missing the point. It is intended to be a handy guide which you can carry in your pocket when sailing and it covers the 8 knots sailors use on a regular basis. Given the relatively small number of these that will be sold, the waterproof pages and the spiral binding it is not that outrageous. If you want a cheap solution Google the knots. If you want handy this is just the job. The fault really lies with Amazon for not putting a picture of the back cover on here. That provides clear information about what’s in the booklet and why. If you think this one is bad try the “Handy Guide to the Racing Rules 2017-2020”!

Pictures on some of the knots are a little hard to follow but the book itself is great quality

Handy knot book.

Terrible quality. Tiny with very little useful info in it. Don’t waste your money.

The thinnest book I have ever received! There are hardly any pages. The descriptions of the knots are handy, as well as the waterproof spiral binding. But, overall disappointing.

this book is only a few pages long but has every know most crew will ever need to use. Maybe if you were off on a single-handed round the world race you might need a few more but, lets face it, if you have to refer to a book then you probably shouldn't be doing it! The book's waterproof so whilst someone else is at the helm and everything's under control you can practice a few knots and make sure you're proficient and ready to use them when needed. Job done.

Great for learning the correct way to make knots. It is surprising how easy if was to forget the right knots to use. Thanks a good book & reference

Not enough knots in this book. I learned more knots at 'Scouts' than there are in this book. Complete waste of time.

Me ha desilusionado un poquito. Más breve y sencillo de lo que pensaba. Proporcionalmente caro aunque la ventaja es el material casi impermeable en el que está fabricado.

Fasst die wichtigsten Knoten kompakt zusammen. Klein handlich und leicht, ideal fürs Schiff

This book or should I say booklet cost me 8.79 with shipping. It's a tiny little booklet with only a few pages and looks like something that would be handed out for free. Very disappointed.
