Acts 27:17

After hoisting it up, they used supports to undergird the ship . Then , fearing that they would run aground on the Syrtis , they lowered the gear , and thus they were driven along.

so the men hoisted it aboard. Then they passed ropes under the ship itself to hold it together. Because they were afraid they would run aground on the sandbars of Syrtis, they lowered the sea anchor and let the ship be driven along.

Which when they had taken up, they used helps, undergirding the ship; and, fearing lest they should fall into the quicksands, strake sail, and so were driven.
