traveller
Explanation:
(mechanical) traveller

Overloop (traveller): Bepaalt hoe de giek staat ten opzichte van de hartlijn van het schip, en regelt hiermee met name het openen of sluiten van het achterlijk van het grootzeil. Bij licht weer staat de giek boven de hartlijn (weinig twist), bij zwaar weer juist verder naar lij.

Neerhaler/neerhouder (boom vang, kicking strap): Op alle koersen regelt de neerhouder de opening en sluiting van het achterlijk (mate van twist). De neerhouder zorgt op ruime koersen dat de giek niet omhoog waait, en op hogere koersen voor de diepte van het zeil en buiging van de mast. Naarmate de wind toeneemt meer neerhouder, bij zeer veel wind juist weer niet teveel.

A mechanical traveller is a moving part of a machine, typically a ring that slides between different positions on a supporting rod when the machine goes through its operating cycle. The term may also be used refer to the supporting rod.


In sailing, it is a mechanical device used to modify the location at which lines used to control sails (such as sheets) are attached to the vessel. The attachment is often by means of a block through which the line runs; the block can move along the traveller. This allows independent control of the direction and tension of the line running through the block, which allows the sailor to position the block in the optimal location for the wind conditions and desired sail trim. This kind of traveller is often a metal track, which is attached to the deck of the boat. The block is attached to a "car", which much like a miniature railroad car, attaches to the track and slides along it in either direction. A traveller on a smaller craft (such as the popular single-handed "Laser" sailboat) might simply be a line attached to two points on the deck, along which another block runs. The term traveller can also be applied to the specialized lines used to control the location of the block.

~overloop:
1> schootleider: dwarsscheepse stang of balk in het achterschip of voorlangs de mast, waaraan het overloopblok bevestigd is.
De overloop op het voorschip wordt meestal luiwagen genoemd.
Gerelateerde termen: leier, overloopsbalk.

2> oude term voor, tussen het voor- en achterschip gelegen, dek op sommige schepen.
Deze term is vermoedelijk afkomstig uit de zeevaart en schijnt voornamelijk betrekking te hebben op grotendeels gesloten dekken, zoals men die in de binnenvaart eigenlijk alleen op de statenjachten en grotere speeljachten aantrof.

3> voornamelijk in de Rijnsleepvaart de gebruikelijke term voor sleepbeugel (sleepboog).

4> zie overlooppijp.
