30
Q

safety measures to be taken when handling mooring ropes and wires:

A

Avoid Mixed Mooring
Consider Weather Condition
Have knowledge of Snap Back Zone and Rope Bight
Check All the Mooring Equipment
Check the Tail of Mooring Line

31
Q

is probably one of the most important knots you can learn, whether it be for diving, climbing, sailing, or any other outdoor activity

A

Bowline

32
Q

It is a knot which is easy to tie, uses very little rope, is nearly unbreakable, and is also easy to untie, no matter how much force that has been applied to i

A

Bowline

33
Q

is a secure and dynamic alternative to the overhand knot, and is almost as simple.

A

Figure 8 Knot

34
Q

. Essentially it is the overhand knot with an extra twist in it. This twist eliminates the sharp turns of the overhand knot which reduce the rope strength so severely, and also more easily facilitates (but not always) the ability to untie the knot after force has been applied to it

A

Figure 8 Knot

35
Q

This knot can both be used to create loops in the rope (like the Bowline) or to attach two ropes together (but only if they are the exact same size, material, and degree of wear).

41
Q

At least _ should be taken.

A

three ‘figures of eight’ turns

42
Q

methods to turn the mooring ropes around the bitts for a safe arrangement

A

For Large size bitts, For Smaller circumference bitts

43
Q

are arranged as automatic self-tensioning units.

A

Modern mooring winches

44
Q

Equipment used for towing should be adequately maintained and inspected before use, as during towing operations excessive loads may be applied to

A

ropes, wires, fairleads, bitts and connections

45
Q

Making fast tugs towline

A

Towing

46
Q

is fixed by positioning it in the center of four anchors connected to it

A

buoy

47
Q

is a simple and rapid means of easing the bitter end of the chain down to the mooring buoy by letting it slide on the wire shackled to the buoy

A

Trolley Method

48
Q

has to be slow often less than while at the same time approaching at a smaller angle to the buoy and then gradually hauling in the buoy messenger rope and pulling the vessel slowly towards the buoy using engine kicks at short intervals to control and maintain headway along with mooring winches to haul in the vessel when she nears about 150-200 meters from the buoy

A

headway approach

49
Q

are considered favorable to make an approach.

A

Calm seas with low swell and wind force below 15kts

50
Q

is provided at the aft to keep the ship at a fixed angle and distance from the buoy

A

tug

51
Q

is relatively light cordage used to pull a heavier cable across a gap or through a tube or duct.

A

messenger line

52
Q

The term is also used for a line used to pull or lower a package along a downline or jackstay

A

messenger line

53
Q

a bight of wire rigged to pass through the ring of a mooring buoy

A

Slip wire

54
Q

purpose is to allow the ship’s personnel to control the time of departure and not be dependent on shoreside linesmen

A

Slip wire

55
Q

It is always the last mooring out, once the vessel is secured to buoy and designed to be the last mooring released

A

Slip wire

56
Q

should be kept away from direct sunlight.

A

Synthetic ropes

57
Q

should preferably be stored under the deck for long voyages but if kept on deck they should be covered with tarpaulins or canvass to prevent exposure to sun and seawater or should be kept on gratings

A

Ropes

58
Q

While using a _ angles should be avoided

A

wire rope sharp

59
Q

When _, care should be taken so as to ensure that the turns on the drum are taken uniformly with sufficient tightness, avoiding any loose or extreme tight turns can cause the rope to get chaffed in between the turns and develop a kink

A

heaving or slacking a wire
