Seamanship Question #8
I sent to:
bsenior at optonline.net The text was: ------------------------------------------ side/stern/masthead 12/12-20/20-50/50 also, screw pin shackles Don't you get a lot of spam using your real addy? ------------------------------------------ I never got a "bounced" message. I guess the explains why you don't get spam! "Bart Senior" wrote in message t... I never got your email. What address did you use? My old one? Jeff Morris wrote You could have mentioned that I included this answer when I emailed you the answer to 6. ;-} "Bart Senior" wrote This is a question right out of the USCG exams. The CG answer is D. Screw Pin shackles. I assume it's because these are more secure. Joe wrote "Bart Senior" wrote When making up a tow connection, you should use: [1 pt] a) Safety Hooks b) Plain eye hooks c) Round pin shackles d) Screw pin shackles When towing anything over 25,000 tons I prefer to use a Pelican hook made for 6 " chain. The six inch chain is long enough to clear the stern roller. The chain has a wormed screw shackle that is attached to the 5" samson braid hauser. I like to have at least 1/4 mile of hauser prefer 1/2 mile. The end of the hauser is attached to a two point bridle that usually uses round pin shackles to attach to the towed item. I like the pelican hook on deck just incase you trip the tow. Or the tow sinks. No sence in getting pulled under or over. Joe |

on websites... something like 90% gotten from robots. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Dave" wrote in message ...
