I think that is the first one you have pulled out that I have never even heard of. Congratulations.

You're welcome. In Patrick O'Brian's Aubrey/Maturin Novels, Preserved Killick was the name of Jack Aubrey's shrewish and long complaining servant. A supremely named character.

I knew that. I've read the entire series several times. I just never heard the word "Killick" used in reference to a piece of gear.
