Vaughan Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 As to "on the huh" there is also "on the sosh". The other day Wussername and I (in the NBN Thorpe branch office) remembered a boatyard term, slantindickerler. This is the opposite to parpendickerler. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polly Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 There is a beautiful sailing cruiser called 'Slantendicular' notable for having had a mast failure due to woodpecker activity. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
16E Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 We had the great pleasure of inspecting 'slanty' when she was brand new. She looked great from each side. However, in the whole she was asymetric so the name Slantendicular was deemed appropriate. Better than broadland generic name for most boats -'Olympic Flame' (never goes out). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
