Crosshauling

/ˈkrɔːshɔːlɪŋ/ verb

Definition

The present participle of crosshaul; the act of pulling ropes or sails across a ship's deck in a perpendicular direction.

Etymology

From 'crosshaul' plus the progressive '-ing' suffix. This nautical term describes the ongoing action of performing this specific rope-handling technique.

Kelly Says

Crosshauling required coordinated crew work—one person might call out the rhythm while multiple sailors pulled in unison, and the ship's movement had to be timed perfectly with the rope work!
