English term or phrase: Shackle (measurement)
Estou traduzindo um texto com termos náuticos e me deparei com essa unidade de medida, usada para medir as correntes e cabos das âncoras e outras peças dos barcos.
Alguém sabe se existe uma tradução específica para essa unidade de medida? Só encontrei esse texto em inglês na Wikipedia como referência: "A nautical unit used for measuring the lengths of the cables and chains (especially anchor chains), equal to 15 fathoms, 90 feet or 27.432 meters."

Agradecido desde já.
