Clear

Clear water is transparent and free from sediment, debris, or other particles that may obstruct visibility. This is important for snorkelling, diving, or fishing, where clear water allows for better visibility of marine life and surroundings.

Alternative Meanings:
  • Clear

    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.

  • Clear

    Clear weather refers to atmospheric conditions free of significant cloud cover, precipitation, fog, or other weather disturbances. The sky is typically sunny or mostly sunny in clear weather, allowing for good visibility and pleasant outdoor conditions.
