Sheepshank
| Глоссарий морской лексики и терминологии (английский язык) |
- A hitch or bend made on a rope to shorten it temporarily; and particularly used on runners, to prevent the tackle from coming block and block. it consists in making two long bights in a rope, which shall overlay one another; then taking a half hitch over the end of each bight, with the standing part, which is next to it.
- A versatile hitch for temporarily shortening a rope, taking up slack, or strengthening or bypassing a chafed line. it is made by taking two long bights and half-hitching each part over opposite ends of the resulting loop. this unknot remains secure under tension but—unlike ordinary knots that bind tightly under tension, becoming almost impossible to undo—easily comes apart when tension is removed. also, the loops at each end can be used to pass another rope through.
