Clear

ALL0-9ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ

To disentangle a line, for example, removing it from a dock cleat when manoeuvring out of a marina.

When departing from a mooring, it is good practice to give the instruction ‘Clear’, indicating that the line is free from its attachment and out of the water. This avoids potential entanglement in the vessel’s propeller and informs the person manoeuvring that they are no longer attached to the mooring.
