  1. Coil it into nice even coils, and the trick to coiling a rope is to twist each loop until the line lays flat. Keep going until there is a nice length left to wrap around the rope. Then start taking a few turns round to keep the coils together. As the coil finishes then pull a bight through the top of the coils.

    Why do ships have rope coils on their decks?
    You make a good point. 'Decorative' as rope coils might look on the decks of a model, this wasn't normal ship practice. There was a good reason for this – it encouraged rot. Everything was done on board ship to minimise wear and tear (which after all means money spent) and this included the running rigging.

    How do you coil a rope?
    Coil the rope by making consecutive circles of the rope of equal size, gathering them up with one hand while using the other hand to make the circles. Make a single hitch around a section of the coil. Then make a second hitch to the left of the first hitch. Pull end tight.

    How was rigging done on a ship?
    Everything was done on board ship to minimise wear and tear (which after all means money spent) and this included the running rigging. Wherever possible rope coils were hung from the belaying pin they were associated with, or perhaps from a cleat if a large rope, so that no part of it touched the deck.
