| She is very well mannered in conditions that would give fits to the helmsmen of modern boats with high aspect fin keels and spade rudders. |
|
| Similarly, as the nose goes down, the vortices below the keels tend to counteract the upward tilt of the tail end. |
|
| She was slipped to fit the ship with bilge keels in order to provide a better sea-keeping capability. |
|
| Sizing computations for bilge keels and anti-roll fins were made for one hull form for various stabilized configurations. |
|
| A box keel carries ballast, and the vessel is fitted with profiled bilge keels. |
|
| She is very well mannered in conditions that would give fits to the helmsmen of modem boats with high aspect fin keels and spade rudders. |
|
| Recent studies of Proterozoic orogenic belts have shown that they may be underlain, at mid to lower crustal levels, by keels of Archaean crust. |
|
| Helicopter bounces forward and keels over on to one side at a 45 degree angle as it comes to rest on a tree stump. |
|
| Extrusions of 6061 or 6063 are used for structural and decorative sections, such as keels, chines, gunwales, and spray rails. |
|
| In some boxfishes, such as the aptly named cowfishes, the keels extend forward, beyond the body, to form sharp horns. |
|
| Perhaps our ancestors got confused with the songs of humpback whales amplified by the keels of their vessels. |
|
| An example used by both Schmalhausen and Waddington concerns the calluses on the keels and sterna of ostriches. |
|
| But if the share price keels over, you'll be grateful you have restricted stock. |
|
| The keel is arranged in box form to carry ballast, and profiled bilge keels are fitted. |
|
| It might also have the effect of keeping the passage clearer by the more frequent stirring and movement of powerful steamers towing flotillas of keels and lighters. |
|
| The warhead would be strung on a line clamped between each of the unfortunate target vessel's bilge keels, with a timer set to detonate after two hours. |
|
| The caudal fin of the barrelfish is only slightly emarginate instead of deeply forked and its caudal peduncle moderately stout and without keels instead of very slender. |
|
| There are no bilge keels, but stabilisation is achieved by a combination of fin stabilisers from Blohm and Voss and a controlled passive tank system supplied by Intering. |
|
| What a tiny little schooner! But is it not bold to spread both sails? And see, now that we have come round to the wind, how the skiff keels over. |
|
| The often long, straight, trunks were favoured as a source of timber for keels in ship construction. |
|
|
|
| It is believed that both attempts were thwarted by bad weather or a flaw in the design of ships that were based on river boats without keels, and his fleets were destroyed. |
|
| They were so called because they worked on the keels, boats that were used to transfer coal from the river banks to the waiting colliers, for export to London and elsewhere. |
