🔍 Key Concepts

• Monkey’s fist as a type of knot and what it is used for • Difference in purpose between a mooring line, heaving line, manrope, and lead line • Which line is typically thrown from ship to shore or between vessels

💭 Think About

• Which of these lines is most likely to need extra weight at the end so it can be thrown a longer distance? • Which of these items is primarily for safety/handhold, which is for measuring depth, and which are for transferring or securing heavier lines? • Think about where you have seen a monkey’s fist used in pictures or onboard: is it in someone’s hand being thrown, or is it permanently part of a mooring setup or safety rail?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option is specifically a light line used to pass heavier lines. • Eliminate any option whose main job is supporting people rather than being thrown. • Eliminate any option whose main job is measuring depth rather than line-handling.
