Fair leads,

But you already have, with the fine examples of how to properly do it in the book. I had the misfortune of having to untie a 270ft boat that a longshoreman had thrown hitches on the bollord when the tide was out and the lines were slack, then the tide came in and cinched them up nice and tight.

On this vain what is the best hitch when you don't have a suitible cleat? As in our marina where things are falling into the water and I have to take a wrap around the dock framing.
