🔍 Key Concepts

• Marlinespike seamanship terms used with rope and wire • How patterns in rope work or rigging can resemble shapes (like a fish skeleton) • Difference between general crafts (like sewing) and specialized line work on boats (splicing, seizing, whipping)

💭 Think About

• Which option is most closely connected to detailed work with individual strands of line or wire? • Think about where you’d hear the term while working on rigging or line maintenance aboard a vessel. • Which choices are more about how a vessel is secured, and which are about how rope or wire itself is constructed or joined?

✅ Before You Answer

• Eliminate choices that mainly describe how a vessel is held in place (rather than how lines are worked). • Focus on the activity that involves unlaying and relaying strands in a patterned way. • Pick the option that best matches a patterned, fishbone-like arrangement of strands – a technical rigging/line-handling skill, not a ship-positioning method.
