The beauty of the bowline is you can mess it up and still get a strong knot. Hands on demo of overhand, overhand loop, bowline, cowboy bowline, Cossack knot, Dutch bowline, timber hitch and marline hitch. BUT YOU ONLY NEED THE BOWLINE.

    Or instead of the elechicken tape you can do a clove hitch on the end… Another good, simple knot that creates friction on the line.

    We pulled 110mm sewer hose with excavators. We simply used a roundsling, twisted it around the hose 3-4 turns and then took the long end through the first loop and then back on itself, attached it to an excavator and pulled. Never failed, slightly harder to loosen but not that bad. Not sure my explanation makes sense but hopefully it comes across as it was meant.
