Welcome to our weekly section for sailors old and new alike! Each week we will look at a different sailing term and its meaning/origin - why? - because we can!

This week's Get Nautical is:
Lubbers Hole

Meaning: The vacant space between the head of the lower mast and the edge of the top (the platform which rests upon the crosstrees at the head of a lower mast), through which those not wanting to use the futtock shrouds could go further aloft.
