Question Yardarm

Got a problem. I won't let the crew of my new boat drink any alcohol until the sun go's over the yard arm. Not really sure what it means, but that's what they say in all the good nautical films. Anyone know what a Yard arm is & where it's located on an Orkney Strikeliner?

Re: Yardarm

i think the yardarm is one of the cross beams on the mast of one of the big sailing ships mate,
i don't think you will have one on your strikeliner

SUN IS OVER THE YARDARM - "(time for happy hour to begin)

The main arm across the mast which holds up the sail.

Re: Yardarm

Is a Yard Arm the same as a Yard of Ale? or is that what you need to drink a yard of ale?
