5 158 I had scrubbed her the first day out from Port Kar, she kneeling in a tub, with sea water and a deck brush.

5 170 Yesterday the blond-haired girl had been permitted to walk about the deck.

6 10 The two girls, on their hands and knees on the deck, linked together by a gleaming neck chain, some five feet in length, attached to two steel work collars, these fitted over their regular collars, looked up.
Details
10
6 13 Earlier they had scrubbed and rinsed and, with rags, on their hands and knees, dried the deck.

10
6 15 Had sailors been doing these things they, of course, would have dried the deck by simply mopping it down.

6 107 Since I, from my lower elevation, a few feet above the deck, by the mainmast, could see their canvas, I knew that their lookouts, from their superior elevations, could see the Palms of Schendi.
Details
10
6 118 I lowered myself now to the deck, hand by hand.
Details
10
6 152 The two girls then stood by the rail, lovely, naked, neck-chained together, watching the passing ships, their bare feet on the smooth boards of the deck of the Palms of Schendi.
Details
10
6 170 "Yes, Master," they said and, with a rustle of chain, fell again to their knees and, seizing up the deck stones, once more, Shoka near them, vigorously addressed themselves to their labors.
Details
10
6 198 The deck was smoothed and white, ropes were neatly coiled, gear was stashed and secured, hatches were battened, and the brass and fittings were polished.

6 210 Oarsmen, at the command of the first officer, a tall fellow named Gudi, he standing now on the helm deck, slid their great levers through the thole ports.

10
6 388 "On your bellies," said Shoka to them, and the two girls lay on the deck.

10
6 419 Better than that she would have been chained in the hold, to a ring, or caged on deck, the tarpaulin thrown over the cage, that she might not detract from the splendor of his entrance into his harbor.

6 511 It then, from the ring, returned to the deck.

6 512 The two seamen then held the line at the deck.

6 517 He made a loop in the line, passed the free end through the deck ring, brought the end up through the loop, about the line, and down through the loop again, then tightened the knot.
Details
10
6 536 As the Palms of Schendi, her canvas now taken in and the long yards swung parallel with the deck, oars lifting and sweeping, moved past the wharves many men stopped working, setting down their burdens, to wave us good greetings.

6 662 One seaman held Sasi's rope taut, above the deck ring.

9 344 A number of mutineers, however, desperately, fighting, were backing up the ramp toward the open deck.
Details
10
9 345 That deck, at least amidships and forward, I gathered, had been largely, most of the time, in the hands of the mutineers.

9 497 Who, when the enemy appears at the horizon, would be willing to spare even a single slinger, in rags, with his sack of absurdly engraved lead pellets, let alone a spearman, or swordsman? Cabot climbed up the ramp, to the open deck.
