When rigging vertical sections of timber into a rigging block. The reason we're putting the Half Hitch before the Running Bowline is that the Half Hitch dissipates the load so that it is not the Running Bowline that is taking the full dynamic load, it is the Half Hitch that takes the initial load then it passes into the Running Bowline. True or False? There is a good chance of the Running Bowline failing if the Half Hitch is not put into the system first. True or False? Why is it the Running Bowline would fail quicker without the Half Hitch when used in this application? Post Extras
