Mooring and Anchoring Ships Vol. 2

Mooring and Anchoring Ships Vol. 2 This is the most comprehensive survey into mooring equipment yet undertaken and the results are essential information for surveyors, inspectors and ship operators concerned with proper use and maintenance. The book demonstrates, with the use of photographs, appropriate and inappropriate use of mooring equipment. The author draws on his picture library from over 1,000 ship visits to show how lack of awareness and knowledge can lead to unsafe practices. Different components of mooring systems are described and the consequences of correct and incorrect use shown. W. Vervloesem AMNI
