MARLINESPIKE’S SEAMANSHIP

art of handling and working all kinds of fiber and wire
rope. It includes every variety of knotting, splicing, serving, and fancy work.
Marlinespike Seamanship
2
manufactured from wire, fiber, and combinations of the two. Fiber
rope–or line, as it is commonly called–is fashioned from natural or synthetic fibers.
Rope
3
is a piece of rope, either fiber or synthetic, that is in
use or has been cut for a specific purpose, such as a lifeline, heaving line, or lead line.
Line
4
right-laid strands around a center core. Each strand is
aramid fibers laid into parallel yarns left laid helically around the strand core with a braided
helical of alternating aramid and polyester yarns.
Four-strand line
5
have certain advantages over twisted ropes. They will not
kink nor will they flex open to admit dirt or abrasives. The construction of some braids,
however, makes it impossible to inspect the inner yarns for damage. The more common
braided lines are hollow braided, stuffer braided, solid braided, and double braided lines.
Braided lines
6
usually have an even number of parallel, tapelike
groups of small yarns braided into a hollow, tubelike cord. This type of construction in cotton
formerly was used for signal halyards–a purpose now served largely by three-strand and
double braided nylon. Other uses are parachute shroud lines and shot lines for line-throwing
guns.
Hollow braided lines
7
are manufactured in a similar manner except that the
braid is formed around a highly twisted yarn core, which rounds out and hardens the line. This
type of construction in cotton is used for sash cord (heaving lines).
Stuffer braided lines
8
are fashioned in various ways. One familiar
construction is that used for leadlines, taffrail log lines, and the like. This braided line is of large
yarns, either single or plied, tightly braided to form a hard, relatively stiff line that will not kink,
snag, or swell in water.
Solid-braided lines
9
consists of 12 strands in a twill pattern, where one
strand of one direction of rotation about the axis of rope passes over two strands of the
opposite direction and then passes under the next two strands of the opposite direction. Single
braided line is used for mooring lines and towing hawsers.
Single braided line
10
is two hollow braided lines, one inside the other. The
core is made of large, single yarns in a slack braid. The cover is also made of large, single
yarns but in a tight braid that compresses and holds the core. Double braided line is
manufactured only from synthetics, and about 50 percent of the strength is in the core. It is
used for mooring lines, towing hawsers, signal halyards, dressing lines, and many other
purposes.
Double braided line
11
is made of eight strands–four right-twisted and four left-twisted.
The strands are paired and worked like a four-strand braid.
Plaited line
12
Line 1 1/2 inches or less in circumference
small stuff
13
three-strand, right-laid tarred hemp is used for seizing and
servings on ships where neatness is required.
Round line
14
small stuff laid up right-handed by machine, like regular line, but it
is not much larger than fishing line is used for servings when a fancier job than can be done
with marline is desired.
Sail twine
15
the light, white line formerly used in hammock clews (lines for
suspending a hammock) is used for decorative purposes.
Cod line
16
the descending order of
strength are the synthetic fibers used to make line.
Aramid, nylon, polyester, polypropylene, and polyethylene
17
is a good knot with many uses. It is used whenever a loop is needed, such
as in making a temporary eye in a mooring line.
bowline
18
the best known knot for bending two lines together. However, it can jam on a
strain and become very difficult to untie.
square knot/reef knot
19
are used to make permanent eyes and permanent repairs in lines. There are
three general types of splices: eye, short, and long. When splicing fiber line, you should take
three or four tucks with each strand.
Splices
20
you must untwist the strands in
the end of your line anywhere from 4 inches to 2 feet, depending on the size of the line, and
splice them into the standing part of the line by tucking the unlaid strands from the end into
the standing part.
eye splice
21
Lines are _________ together when a slight enlargement of the diameter of
the line is of no importance. Slings are made of pieces of line, with their own ends short spliced
together.
short spliced
22
An eye splice consists of three main component
eye, individual strands, and the standing part of the rope
23
designated by the number of strands per rope and the number of
wires per strand.
Wire Rope
24
made of annealed steel, traction steel, or improved plow steel. The
basic metal may be plain or galvanized. galvanizing protects the rope from the elements, but
makes it stiffer and reduces its strength by as much as 10 percent.
Wire Rope
25
6 strands with 19 wires
6x19
26
Both wires in the strands and strands in the rope are twisted to the right.
RIGHT LANG LAY
27
Both wires in the strands and strands in the rope are twisted to the left.
LEFT LANG LAY
28
Wires in the strands are twisted to the left; strands in the rope are
twisted to the right.
RIGHT REGULAR LAY
29
Wires in the strands are twisted to the right; strands are twisted to the left.
LEFT REGULAR LAY
30
the process of securing one rope to another, two or more parts of the
same rope to itself, or fittings of any kind to a rope by binding with small stuff or with annealed
iron wire.
