Its origins lie in the age of sail. The mainbrace was the largest rigging on a sailing vessel and was used to control the angle of the yard that held the main sail. ... Splicing a mainbrace was already one of the most difficult repairs on a ship, even without the added pressure of doing it speedily. During battle it was incredibly dangerous. Successfully splicing a mainbrace was rewarded with an extra ration of rum. This led to the order “Splice the Mainbrace” becoming authorization to imbibe a celebratory drink and has been expanded to include other significant events, including a successful battle, a royal birth, a royal wedding and special occasions. 1, record 7, English, - splice%20the%20mainbrace

L'origine de l'expression date de l'époque des bateaux à voile. Le cordage principal était le plus gros des cordages à bord des navires. Il permettait de contrôler l'angle de la vergue de la grand-voile. [...] Même lorsque les marins n’ étaient pas pressés par le temps, l'épissage du cordage principal était l'une des réparations les plus difficiles à effectuer à bord d’un navire. Pendant une bataille, ce type de réparation était incroyablement dangereux. Les marins qui parvenaient à épisser le cordage principal recevaient une ration supplémentaire de rhum. L'ordre «épissez le cordage principal» est ainsi devenu une façon de donner la permission de boire après l'accomplissement d’une tâche difficile, puis l'expression s’est élargie pour inclure d’autres événements importants, comme une victoire ou encore une naissance ou un mariage au sein de la famille royale. 1, record 7, French, - %C3%A9pissez%20le%20cordage%20principal
