: Hi everyone, I have finally had a chance to spray the auto clear on
: the guillemot (turned out great only two runs nothing to fret
: over!).

: Now I am working on attaching the deck lines and bungees to the
: soft padeyes I installed yesterday. Question is what is the best
: knot to use for the 3/16 deck lines in order to attach them to
: the soft padeyes? I am looking for something low pro and
: attractive, that won't come untied. While I am at it what is the
: best knot for tying the bungee (also 3/16) together?

: I will post a pic of the cleared yak when I get my camera (left it
: with the boat) Thanks in advance
