Monkeyfists are used as a big knot and weight at the end of a heaving line. These are important on large vessels were hawsers and mooring ropes are to heavy to be thrown. You will throw the heaving line with the monkeyfist and use that to pull the heavier hawser/mooring rope. Heaving lines are also practical on smaller vessels as you achieve longer lengths when throwing the monkeyfist heaving line than the mooring rope
