Dictionary of Nautical Terms
bitt-stopper
One rove through the knee of the bitts, which nips the cable on the bight: it consists of four or five fathoms of rope tailed out nipper fashion at one end, and clench-knotted at the other. The old bitt-stopper, by its running loop on a standing end, bound the cable down in a bight abaft the bitts--the tail twisted round the fore part helped to draw it still closer. It is now disused--chain cables having superseded hemp.
