By this means the breadth of the opening in the deck ismuch diminished, and in some cases a similar plan is followed inorder to reduce the length also by means of plate headledges* andlight fore and aft carlings. This portable framing is generallyfastened with nut and screw bolts at such of the hatchways asfrequently require to be opened. BITTS AROUND MASTS.
