Which knot is used to attach two different sized lines together?
Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option B — Sheet bend
The sheet bend is the most reliable knot for joining two lines of different diameters. By creating a bight in the larger line and weaving the smaller line through it, the knot provides a secure connection that resists slipping, which is a common failure point for other knots.
