south by west

We made our easting, worked down through the doldrums, and caught a fresh breeze out of south-by-west.

“Thirty-six miles south-by-west of Portland Bill,” answered the skipper.

It was dark by now, with stars in the sky and a breath of wind from the south and south-by-west.

From that point the boundary runs south-by-west to the Guaso Nyiro River, which forms the eastern half of the southern boundary.

At two o'clock in the morning, the wind veered round to south-by-west, and moderated, but a heavy sea was still running.
