to jibe
"Ready About", "Ready", "Helms-a-Lee" - ANS-Tiller could be placed leeward to motive the
boat to come back approximately (tacking)
Aft - ANS-Back, stern of vessel
Ahead - ANS-Front of the boat
Astern - ANS-Back of the boat
Backstay - ANS-Ensures the mast won't fall ahead
Batten - ANS-A thin strip of timber or other inflexible however flexible cloth which, while
inserted right into a geared up pocket in a sail, flattens the leech
Batten Pocket - ANS-Pockets sewn into the trailing fringe of the sail to keep the battens
Beam - ANS-Bearing projected at right-angles from the fore and aft strains, outwards from
the widest a part of deliver, define the maximum width of a deliver's hull
Beam Reach - ANS-The wind is blowing directly throughout the boat's beam, its widest part,
the nine:00 or three:00 position
Block - ANS-Wood, metallic, or artificial casing that consists of one or extra groove pulley
called sheaves, primary component of jogging rigging, a tool to exchange a strains path
Bolt Rope - ANS-A rope sewn around the edge or a vessel's sail to prevent tearing
Boom - ANS-Horizontal pole at the bottom of the mainsail, it swings from one side of the
boat to the alternative whilst the boat is popping thru the wind
Boom Topping Lift - ANS-A line which applies upward pressure on a growth on a tailing, the
hold the boom when the sail is diminished, uphaul
Boom Vang - ANS-A line or piston machine on a sailboat used to exert downward pressure
on the increase and hence control the shape of the sail
, Bow - ANS-Forward, the front of the vessel
Broad Reach - ANS-Headed barely downwind
Cabin - ANS-A compartment below the deck
Chainplate - ANS-Fasten a shroud or stay to the hull

sail's form
Draft - ANS-Determines the minimal depth of water a ship can accurately navigate, may be
used to determine the burden of the cargo on board by way of calculating the whole
displacement
Fairlead - ANS-A ring installed on a ship to manual a rope, maintaining it clean of
obstructions and stopping it from being cut or chafed
Fender - ANS-Used to keep some thing off or save you a collision
Foot - ANS-The bottom fringe of a sail
Forward - ANS-Front, bow of vessel
Freeboard - ANS-The distance from the waterline to the top deck level, measured at the
bottom factor of sheer where water can input the boat
