🔍 Key Concepts

• Line handling terminology for how lines are laid out so they run clear • Difference between storing a line in a circle vs. laying it out in long bights • How towing gear is prepared so it can pay out quickly without snarling

💭 Think About

• Which term is used when you arrange a line in long fore‑and‑aft loops so it can run out freely? • Which option refers instead to coiling or spiraling a line on deck in a flat pattern, often for neat stowage rather than rapid paying out? • Which answer choice is not about arranging a line on deck at all, but about protecting or finishing a rope?

✅ Before You Answer

• Match the definition: fore‑and‑aft bights that run free with no snags • Eliminate any choice that mainly means coiling in a circular/spiral pattern for neatness • Eliminate any choice that is a multi‑step rope protection process, not a deck‑layout method
