 **Bardun** (it. bardune), sjöv., tåg af stående godset, som från öfversta delen af en stång (förlängningen af en mast) går ned till aktersta delen af röstet i fartygssidan eller stundom till en bult i relingen. Bardunerna tjäna att vid segling stötta stången såväl sidovägen som akterifrån. De hafva olika namn, alltefter den stång de tillhöra, såsom: för-bram-barduner, stor-öfverbram-barduner, kryss-stäng-barduner o. s. v.\\
 **– Lofbardun**, en på hvardera fartygssidan, går från stången genom en klyka på salningshornet ner till röstet i lovart och ansattes med talja, hvars löpare ledes in på däcket.

+**BACKSTAYS**. Long ropes extending from all mast-heads above a lower-mast to both sides of the ship or chain-wales; they are extended and set up with dead eyes and laniards to the backstay-plates. Their use is to second the shrouds in supporting the mast when strained by a weight of sail in a fresh wind. They are usually distinguished into breast and after backstays; the first being intended to sustain the mast when the ship sails upon a wind; or, in other terms, when the wind acts upon a ship obliquely from forwards; the second is to enable her to carry sail when the wind is abaft the beam; a third, or shifting backstay, is temporary, and used where great strain is demanded when chasing, chased, or carrying on a heavy pressure of canvas: they are fitted either with lashing eyes, or hook and thimble with selvagee strop, so as to be instantly removed.

+**Backstays.** Ropes led from a mast to a position abaft it. They support mast against forces acting in a forward direction.
