Fender knot?

[joeydee]

Hi, I wonder how a tire is typically attatched to a rope when used as fender.
I used a simple larks head for testing here:


This is my reference (movie 5th element):

Seems to be a more komplex knot, as well as some google refs I found.
Maybe you can recommend me a valid knot for this purpose? I just don't want to use a knot that nobody would use here.
Thanks in advance

Jochen! Try and Google fishing line knots,it may give you an idea what to use. HTH

I know, and most knots I found were for the rail side, where they have to be undone quickly.
But I couldn't spot out which knot to use for the tire itself yet (or how it is named, so I can goole for an instruction).
