Re: pic: Telescoping Arm Warning
Some people will tell you that there is no rope on a sailboat, but this only holds true for an ill-prepared one. Even fancy pants spinneret-ed high tech fiber used for holding stuff together on an america's cup boat is called rope when it is on the spool, as "rope" is the term for the raw material. A line is a usefully knotted/spliced/whatever amount of rope. So next time "captain" Bill castigates you with the old chestnut, tell him to wait while you go get some, cause how else are you getting home if the halyard snaps?
