A most excellent site. It will not help me because I am work under the premise that, if you do not know how to tie knots, tie lots. I tie lots and my knots are not in the knot book, nor should they be.

Mare - you can find a good explanation of the dragon bowline in the sailing book the "Rigger's Apprentice" by Brion Toss...

It's been a while since I tied a bowline one-handed. It is a good thing to know -- especially for water rescue.
