Daggerboard handle - EMERGENCY! =P

[laser179104]

Ok, ok i left it too late, UK nationals tomorrow and i haven't put a handle on my new daggerboard.

I fancy the stick style handle but have no idea how to make it . Can anyone help with which knot to use or where to drill the holes?

Any help would be great

Cheers

I'm not familiar with the stick style handle... I just have a rope handle. I drilled two holes, the first about 2" in front of the stop, the second about 4" in front of that.

Thread the rop through thhe port side of the dagger board and tie a stoper, then through the starboard side and tie a stopper at the length you want.

The first thing that comes to mind would be to tie a hangman's noose with the loop end going through two holes in the daggerboard. I don't know what the actual knot is.
