Was this just after raising or lowering sails? If a halyard is fouled in the

Oh, no. A knot? That will result in a hydrocoidal spin in the neutralos.
That, in turn, will cause an icolastic backflow of the angrafads which may
invert the dissacromal fonctoids.

There is an antidote additive, however that will introduce some hysteresis and
