jib

To borrow the old sailing expression, they liked the cut of his jib.

Abudayyeh’s parents emigrated from the Israeli-occupied West Bank village of Al Jib and settled on Chicago’s North Side in the 1960s.

He mentioned that his father never finished college; he had children and relatives back in Al Jib to support.

It leans like a ladder in midair, “and the camera is on another track with a jib arm and a dolly attached to the top of the jib.”

Once we’re clear of the port, the crew gets to work, hoisting the main sail, followed by the jib.
