Catchword: mahogany reef

Filed under: English, Nautical, Slang

Part of speech: n.

Quotation: The South-Easter was honking up to 40+ knots and only four boats crossed the start line, which meant I was forced to abandon the race as there were no valid minimum class entries. Most skippers sensibly remained at their moorings or at the “mahogany reef.”
