Portuguese term or phrase: Nó de Escota
Tal como o Nó de Escota, o Lais de Guia é um dos nós mais aplicados a bordo. É dado no chicote de uma espia para encapelar expeditamente num cabeço e nas boças das embarcações, quando estas têm que ser rebocadas. Existindo vários tipos de Lais de Guia, apresentamos o mais usual: singelo pelo chicote.
