Boom preventer.
On that subject, why is an accidental gybe sometimes called a Chinese gybe?

Yon piece of string with a hook that Geoff will sell you with his anchor?
For me a Chinese gybe is when the top of the sail gybes thus lifting the boom (think gaff mainsail), shortly followed by the weather runner taking a whack.

An easy one . . .
Tight in bright light
But flabby by night
Tie a good knot
Or you're stuck on the yacht
