Heave (translational Motion)
Ship motions are the six degrees of freedom that a ship, boat, or other watercraft can experience. Reference axes The ''flight control surfaces#Vertical axis, vertical/Z axis'', or ''yaw axis'', is an imaginary line running vertically through the ship and through its centre of mass. A yaw motion is a side-to side movement of the bow and stern of the ship. The ''flight control surfaces#Transverse axis, transverse/Y axis'', ''lateral axis'', or ''pitch axis'' is an imaginary line running horizontally across the ship and through the centre of mass. A pitch motion is an up-or-down movement of the bow and stern of the ship. The ''flight control surfaces#Longitudinal axis, longitudinal/X axis'', or ''roll axis'', is an imaginary line running horizontally through the length of the ship, through its centre of mass, and parallel to the ''waterline''. A roll motion is a side-to-side or port-starboard tilting motion of the superstructure around this axis. Rotational There are t ...

Heaving To
In sailing, heaving to (to heave to and to be hove to) is a way of slowing a sailing vessel's forward progress, as well as fixing the helm and sail positions so that the vessel does not have to be steered. It is commonly used for a "break"; this may be to wait for the tide before proceeding, or to wait out a strong or contrary wind. For a solo or shorthanded sailor it can provide time to go below deck, to attend to issues elsewhere on the boat or to take a meal break.www.sailingusa.info/points_of_sail.htm Heaving to can make reefing a lot easier, especially in traditional vessels with several sails. It is also used as a storm tactic. A sailing vessel that is hove to is still, for the purposes of the [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
