Ted: Ummm, yeah

"SHIT!" he bellowed, before even becoming fully awake. He looked around the tiny compartment, looking for the source of the horrific noise that woke him. "Must be up on deck," he said to himself (something he had started doing alot of lately). Pulling his pistol, he went forward up the companionway to the ladder which led to the hatch. He had set condition yoke at two bells so he was sure there was nothing belowdecks.

Opening the hatch, he realized that the noise had been made when the leeward fokslestay halyard had parted and crashed abaft the mizzenmast's spinnaker wheel.

I'm guessing this is taken from real life events.
