HF711 - Thick and dry for weighing !
Trådtittelen er et maritimt uttrykk som ble brukt under haling ("weighing") av anker på britiske seilskip. Uttrykket er blant annet brukt i Boccherinis favorittbøker, Patrick O'Brians romanserie om Jack Aubrey og Stephen Maturin:
The frigate glided over the water quite briskly, then slower, slower until the bosun called, "Right up and down, sir," and the officer of the watch replied, "Thick and dry for weighing."
