unlashed

Free from binding

Unlashed means not fastened or tied down with lashings—ropes, straps, or cords used to secure cargo or equipment: The unlashed barrels rolled across the deck in the storm.

It can also mean not struck with a whip, though this sense is rare.

The word appears most often in nautical or shipping contexts where securing loose items matters.
