Abstract

The disclosure relates to a rope-handling system which is characterized by comprising a guiding pole (1) that is convertible between an operating configuration and a storage configuration, the guiding pole comprising pivotable arms (11) forming a Y fork (12) in the extended position of the guiding pole. The system further comprises line-engaging means (13) releasably attachable at the base of the arms (14) and connectable to an attachment rope (3), wherein the line-engaging (13) means comprises a line trap (131) for catching a monkey-fist (51) of a heaving line (5) when the heaving line is directed between the arms (11) of the Y fork (12) from a vessel. The disclosure further relates to a special purpose craft and to a guiding pole.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to a rope handling system, a specialized vessel and a guide rod. Background technique [0002] Special purpose vessels are used for various tasks at sea, in port and in inland waters. For example tugboats are used in various situations to assist other vessels that often need to maneuver in restricted waters. A tugboat can tow or push the assisted vessel. When towing, the tugboat and the assisted vessel are usually connected by a tow rope. The length of the tow rope can be adjusted by the towing winch on the tugboat. The towline is connected to a bollard on the vessel being assisted. The tasks performed by specialized vessels can range from icebreaking to waterway maintenance, including situations where a vessel may be required to be attached to another vessel by rope. Similar systems can also be used to moor ships at berths. [0003] The usual way of connecting a vessel to a private boat or berth is to throw a throw...
