Please write a description of a wild scene outside a boat ship with rope and an oar.
assistant
Shreds of rope and pieces of sail skitter about the deck, blown into and out of a vortex as if forming a miniature tornado. Suspended from frayed ropes, a single damaged oar left in the grummets clatters against the port rail. The backstays pass overhead, stretched taut and secured to a bolt set in the stanchion beneath the deck beam.
