BZ to Ron Force!

He 'most correctly' defined the term 'sally in her weigh'

"It is an action performed by the entire crew of a ship when run <soft>
aground. All non-essential personnel lay to the weatherdecks, and as a whole,
run from port to starboard, starboard to port, etc. etc. while the ships
screws (propellers without shear-pins <ha>) are running at full astern to
break free."

Congrats!
