Securing Your Dinghy Like a Pro — Truckers Hitch Setup

If you’re running a catamaran, your dinghy setup on the stern can make or break your time at anchor. A loose dinghy is noisy, unsafe, and hard on your gear.

In this video, we break down how to properly secure your dinghy on the back of a catamaran using the trucker’s hitch—one of the most reliable tensioning knots in boating.

⚓ Why this method works:
• Creates strong, adjustable tension on your dinghy lines
• Keeps your tender snug and stable underway or at anchor
• Easy to release when it’s time to launch
• Reduces chafe and unwanted movement in swell or wind
• Essential seamanship skill for cruising and liveaboard sailing

Perfect for:
catamaran sailing, dinghy storage, anchoring setups, offshore cruising, boat handling skills, and ASA sailing training

A secure dinghy = a smoother, safer charter or voyage.
