Mr. William Sokimi is teaching the class how to tie different knots such as Square Knot, Clove Hitch, Bow Line, Sheet Bend, and Slip Knot.  Sokimi mentioned that knots is important to any work that requires rope, anchors, and especially Fish Aggregation Device (FAD).  Knots are useful to learn because people can use it anytime and anywhere they needed to.
