Outrigger
01
utriggare, sidstabilisator
a structure attached to the side of a boat or ship, typically for support or stability, extending beyond the hull
Exempel
Fishermen in the Pacific Islands traditionally use outriggers on their boats for better balance.
Fiskare i Stilla havets öar använder traditionellt utriggare på sina båtar för bättre balans.
Without an outrigger, the boat would have easily overturned in the strong current.
Utan en utriggare skulle båten lätt ha kantrat i den starka strömmen.
02
stabiliserare, stödfot
a support leg that extends outward from a crane to stabilize it and prevent tipping during lifting operations
Exempel
The crane operator extended the outriggers before lifting the beam.
Kranoperatören sträckte ut stöddynorna innan han lyfte balken.
Without outriggers, the crane would n't be stable on uneven ground.
Utan stödhjul skulle kranen inte vara stabil på ojämn mark.
