AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) L. The double blackwall hitch is a type of knot used for securing a line to a fixed object. In the illustration D030DG, the knot labeled "L" corresponds to the double blackwall hitch. The other options are incorrect because: A) F is a bowline knot, B) G is a sheet bend, and D) R is a two half hitches knot - none of which are the double blackwall hitch.
