bande n. f.


Définition :
The inclining of a ship to one side or the other due usually to a shift in the cargo or the flooding in some part of the hull.
Inclinaison to one side, as of a vessel.


Sous-entrée(s) :
synonyme(s)
heel
heeling [Great Britain]

Note(s) :
It is more permanent than a heel, which is more often due to the pressure of the wind and lasts only as long as a ship's course relative to the wind is held without alteration.
The terms « list » and « heel » are often used synonymously, but « list » generally implies a state of equilibrium in an inclined condition, while « heel » may imply either a continuing or momentary inclination.

pentru cei care imi vor spune ca Bow = prova le spun dinainte sa citeasca linkul nr 2 :)
