Did you know rope was one of the most important technologies of the golden age of sailing? Whether it was securing valuable cargo or controlling the sails of a fully-rigged merchant ship, good strong rope could mean the difference between profit and the poorhouse—or even between life and death! Learn the what, how, and why of rope making and make rope with your own hands!
For all ages. Registration is appreciated, but is not required.
