part of traditional Catalan 'llaut'
Term to describe a part of a traditional Catalan boat, a 'llaut'.
In my text this is called a 'primola' but I think it's incorrect as I can't find mention of it anywhere.
I found a couple of definitions for it in Catalan but can't figure out what the English term is;
Paramola: Peces de fusta que van fixades i clavades horitzontalment damunt els escalemots a proa i popa del llaüt, amb un forat per passar-hi el pal trinquet a proa i una mitjana a popa.
Cadascuna de les dues peces de fusta d'un llaüt fixada horitzontalment sobre la cara superior de les quadernes a popa i a proa del llaüt, amb un forat per a permetre el pas dels pals.
It appears to be some kind of wooden plate that the mast emerges from.

Mast step
Primola is OK. See reference.
Wood or steel fitting that takes the heel of the mast

the dictionary definition is clear...
Properly speaking, partners, sometimes called carlings, are deck reinforcements.

Note from asker:
| Thansk Peter, do you think it might also be a 'mast partner'? It looks like a rectangular structure, like a horizontal plate, in my illustration. mast partner: wood planking or steel plating around a mast hole in a deck to give support to a mast |
| Great, thanks. I presume the step is the bottom part then. |
| Thanks so much for your help, Peter! I ended up awarding the points to Sheila though, as she was first to mention 'carling', which was the term I eventually chose. |
