On a bight of this rope, between the block and the bitt, the accumulator was lashed. |
The offshore waters are typically tempestuous, but winds in the channel's eastern bight will be only 10 to 15 knots. |
Take a half-hitch over the end of each bight with the standing part which is next to it. |
A bight signifies a bay or sinuosity, on the border of any large mass or body of ice. |
We'll go back around the point and into that last small bight we passed on our way here. |
Couldn't see the mountains but Lake Taupo and the Taranaki bight were visible. |
