The Pile Hitch is an exceptionally easy knot to tie, untie and remember.
What is the Pile Hitch Used For? The Pile Hitch is a very simple way of securing an object to a stanchion. This is not a permanent way of securing an object, as it may need adjusting on a regular basis. If say for example you have a line from a dingy and you want a quick tie and then quick release way of securing it, then the Pile Hitch will work well for that. Just remember that it does need checking on a regular basis. A good way of attaching a mooring line to a post.
How to Tie the Pike Hitch: The great thing about the Pile Hitch, is that it can be tied in the bight of a rope. Simply take a bight of rope or line and pass it round the object; take the bight and pass it under the standing part; then pass the bight up and over the stanchion,
For reference, this knot is ABoK 1815
Ashley's Book of Knots: "A Pile Hitch may be easily and quickly tied either in the end or bight of a heavy line. It is remarkably secure and is easy to cast off when the left bight has been loosened by a single well-aimed kick. Recommended for medium and heavy lines."
