Q

Stuffer-braid rope has __________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• Different constructions of synthetic rope (laid/three-strand, double-braid, plaited, and stuffer-braid) • What the term core means in rope construction • How stuffer-braid differs from double-braid or three-strand lines

💭 Think About

• First, recall what a typical three-strand line looks like and how it’s put together. Does that match any of these answer choices directly? • Think about what makes stuffer-braid unique compared with a standard braided rope. Is the inside empty, filled with something, or made of separate strands? • Compare the idea of a core in rope to the idea of ‘stuffing’—how might that help you eliminate some of the options?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear on the difference between strands (twisted together) and braids (woven pattern). That rules out at least one answer. • Decide whether a core means a distinct, central element that’s separate from the outer braid, or just the inside material in general. • Ask yourself: in common seamanship references, is stuffer-braid described by what’s in its center, or by the exact number of threads/strands? This can help weed out distractor choices.
