Bonjour y'all! Laissez le bon Trump rouler!!!

Know your Nautical terminology

ropes, the
1. All cordage, the lines in the rigging.
2. Any cordage of over 1 inch (2.5 cm) in diameter.

line
The correct nautical term for the majority of the cordage or "ropes" used on a vessel. A line will always have a more specific name, such as mizzen topsail halyard, that specifies its use.

hawser
A large rope used for mooring or towing a vessel.

A towing hawser must be 2.5" in diameter or greater if it is wire or 4+" if it is not wire. In current usage in the US Navy, all 'rope' is made of wire. Natural or synthetic cordage are either lines or hawsers.

Love your nautical terms!

“Hawser” - Canadian term, slang, used as a mild put-down.

“Take off, Hawser, Eh?”

Yes...a slide.

“A line will always have a more specific name, such as mizzen topsail halyard, that specifies its use.”

How thick is shore line?

Where does one find shore line, especially at a Naval Air Station?

Do they stow any emergency shore line behind the bar at the EM Club? (If asked always a good place to go searching!)

We've never known LonePalm
to post a slide.

Nor hath "he that sails" above the fray
posted naught once more.

Always timely, focused and measured comms;

Big hands!

LP is always looking at the windward side of Q.

Always in perfect sail trim
and in sync with our common goal
towards destinations Q.


INCORRECT decode LP last:

• I'm at the end of my rope!
  
  
• We've let out too much rope!

• MY, that rope is MAGNIFICENT!

Correct decode LP last:

• We have not yet let out enough rope;
  
  everyone remain calm.
  
  
• Save some rope for the last act.

Bonjour y'all! Laissez le bon Trump rouler!!!
