For a rope/chain connection on something like a tow (ie where the ability to undo it quickly is important) a pelican hook would be best IMHO. I'm not sure I'd want to use a chain on a tow line, unless it was something really big, tow duration a couple of days, and chafe could not be guarded well enough. Fresh Breezes- Doug King |

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 Ok, I'll give it a go. 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 |

Seamanship Question #8
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.

A pin shackle in running gear can have it's cotter pin severed and lost, But in a bind they are easier to remove quickly. A pelican on your end is for your safety. I think on anything under 50 foot a good bowline will do the trick, and a sharp knife for safety. That question needed more specific application information IMO. Perhaps Capt. Neal needs to give the test's aurthor a call. I will file an offical ASA protest with the test graders if you do not award my point :0( Joe 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.
