Description
Late evening fog backlights the bow of a luxury sailboat at rest dockside in Camden Harbor, Maine
Note the Flemish Flake (or Flemish Coil) which provides an attractive, neat way of temporarily stowing the end of the securing rope. A Flemish flake/coil, also called a cheesed coil, is a flat coil of rope with the end in the center and the turns lying against, without riding over, each other. Flemish coils were, and still are, used by the Navy and by yachties when they want everything to look especially neat and tidy.
