In the book Descriptive Physical Oceanography, authors Pickard and Emery vividly describe the recovery phase: Upon returning to the general location of the deployed mooring the scientist will reactivate the acoustic system on the release and use it to better locate the mooring and assure its condition as being ready for release. When ready, the ...
Two days after the fire began, the red-hot ship continued to smolder and smoke, which further delayed rescue and recovery efforts. [4] Bremen also burned intensely. After her crew threw off her mooring lines, she drifted until she was towed to mid-stream by tugs. She eventually ran aground upriver near Weehawken. More than 200 people were on ...
Mooring involves (a) beaching the boat, (b) drawing in the mooring point on the line (where the marker buoy is located), (c) attaching to the mooring line to the boat, and (d) then pulling the boat out and away from the beach so that it can be accessed at all tides.
Synergy Marine Group was still a scrappy startup in the global shipping industry at the time of Murray’s accident in January 2010. ... asphyxiated, struck by mooring lines, ensnared in equipment ...
A typical four-point-moor consists of an X pattern with four Stato Anchors at the outside corners and Salvor at the center, made fast to a spring buoy for the close end of each mooring leg with synthetic mooring lines. Using her capstans, Salvor can shorten or lengthen the mooring line for each leg and change her position within the moor. [30]
A typical four-point-moor consists of an X pattern with four Stato Anchors at the outside corners and Grapple at the center, made fast to a spring buoy for the close end of each mooring leg with synthetic mooring lines. Using her capstans, Grapple can shorten or lengthen the mooring line for each leg and change her position within the moor. [9]
At 08:45 men forward cut her mooring lines with axes, freeing her from Arizona, and she got underway, steering by engines alone. The naval tug Hoga , whose tugmaster had served aboard Vestal just a few months before the attack, pulled Vestal ' s bow away from the inferno engulfing Arizona and the repair ship, and the latter began to creep out ...
Clewlines (green) and buntlines (red) for a single sail. The sail here is semi-transparent; fainter lines are running behind it. Clewlines and buntlines are lines used to handle the sails of a square rigged ship. The leechlines are clearly visible running inwards and upwards from the edges of the sail.
