Sailmaker's Whipping - Whipping the End of a Rope (Without Needle)
Sailmaker's Whipping - Whipping the End of a Rope (Without Needle) Sailmaker's Whipping is perhaps the best permanent whipping for the end of any stranded rope. As with other whippings, it is most effective when applied inquest whipping twine, a short distance from the end of the rope. The way things should be as tight as possible, between one and one and a half times the diameter of the rope in length and finished with a reef knot between the strands.
