Can you reeve and jump a cod line? And if you can, what are you doing with what? Have you ever seen a kumatage? Why are those Navy coats called Pea coats? Whats it mean to scud. Was the skipper right in calling his boat the S.S. Minnow? Joe MSV Redcloud |

Why are those Navy coats called Pea coats? From pilot cloth... first letter "P" Correct, But some claim it has something to do with Pea soup fog, the Fog that stops Lanod. Whats it mean to scud.

Bart answered: No, because it is doubtful the Minnow was a Steam Ship =

no one knew that to scud is to run before a gale with little or no sail set.... Also.... a gust of wind. Ragged low clouds, moving rapidly beneath another cloud layer. American Heritage 3rd Edition. I wish I had been paying attention - I didn't notice this question. There's an old saying around Portsmouth and Cape Ann: In the event of a Nor'easter in the Bay, one should "hoist the fores'l and scud for Squam!" meaning Annisquam, on the north side of Gloucester. |
