Lifting and Lifting Appliances Aboard Ship

SeaReader eBook Lifting and Lifting Appliances Aboard Ship Lifting appliances on board ship, particularly ships cranes, are critical to a vessel earning freight. A ship is only earning money, ie, freight, when carrying cargo at sea. If the deck cranes are out of action in port the vessel will have downtime which in turn reduces the vessels earning capacity. For this reason, and the safety of the crew, ships cranes should be well maintained, usually whilst at sea, to reduce the possibility of port downtime.
