puomin alasvetäjä
Definition from
Quantum Sail Design Group:
[...] [Puomin alasvetäjän] tehtävä on estää isopurjeen puomia nousemasta ylöspäin silloin kun skuuttia löysätään ja puomia lasketaan ulospäin.
Example sentences:
Jos puomin alasvetäjä jää kireälle, isoa ei saa löysättyä ja jos veneen saa kääntymään niin uimareissu on edessä. (Purjehdukseen liittyvä keskustelupalsta)
