: 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

There are lots of knots that'll work, I'm not the one to ask about that. But if you use electical shrink wrap on the rope/bungie ends after the knots are tied it makes the job look more finished and has less chance of the knots coming undone. You do have to plan a little to make sure the shrink wrap is where you want it "before" you tie the knot, yes I've messed this up :)
