Meaning happens now on the right side of the boat, now on the left.

Notes
- Same entry in Photius and elsewhere. The headword, presumably quoted from somewhere (and cf. in any event Eubulus fr. 51 Kock, now 50 K.-A.), is preferred by Phrynichus and Pollux over
a)natoixei= ; see LSJ s.v. (web address 1).
For the toichoi, literally walls, of a boat cf. e.g. Homer, Odyssey 12.420 and see LSJ s.v., 2.
