Alleyway- Vessel internal passageway in corridor and free from any obstacle for the safety of
the

Bilge kill- Non retractable elongated longitudinal pin protruding to bilge

Winch- a marine deck equipment device for handling wire or ropes and work by pulling the wire

and safety purposes

Why a ship needs a crane - For taking provision and stores aboard cargo.

Windlass- is a device used for lowering and raising the anchor.

Hard Eye Splice- Is soft eye with a timbale splice in I use to prevent unnecessary ware

Short Splice- Is used to join two ropes that are not require to pass through a block or any eye
fitting.

Chain Stopper- chain stopper holds the anchor while the ship is underway and guides the
chain during anchoring maneuvers. During anchoring, the chain stopper withstands the forces
from the anchor, so the anchor winch is protected

It is used to finishing the end of the rope which is not required

Prevents the rope from un laying.

Eye Splice- Used for making a permanent eye at the end to the rope

Sheep Shank- it is expressed for temporarily shortening the bite of the rope without cutting it.

Fairlead Roller- is a tool wood or iron that differ that is used to separate stance of rope or wire.

Fairlead Roller- its primary function is to reduce lateral load tension on the winch.

Chock- a guide for mooring lines

Anchor Stopper- A device to hold a dock or cable to prevent the anchor from running out

Gangway- a narrow passages use to work or disembark ships.

Chock 2- describe as heavy metal casting.

Deck Crane- use to lift and lower materials and also to move them horizontally.

Where mooring winches is mostly commonly located? Fore and after of the both side of the
ship.

Mooring- is a procedure to make fast the ship with a fixed or a floating object.

Mediterranean Mooring- - also known as “med mooring”, is a technique for mooring a vessel to
pier at a perpendicular angle.

Baltic Mooring- - is a combination mooring of a vessel alongside the berth which employs a
stern mooring shackled to the offshore anchor cable in the region of the “ganger length”.

Single Point Mooring- It is described to a floating buoy GT anchored offshore to allow handling
cargo.

Standing Mooring - The starboard anchor is let go and simultaneously port anchor heaved on.

Standing Mooring - This is practiced during cross winds. As the vessel is stopped the port
anchor is let go and with the tide around 9 shackles are paid out.

Running Mooring - The vessel’s starboard anchor is let go at a position approximately four to
five shackles from the final position of the bow and around 9 shackles paid out while moving
ahead on engines.

Running Mooring - This maneuver takes relatively short duration compared to Mediterranean
mooring and offers more control of the vessel.
Ship to Ship Mooring- Ship-to-Ship transfer means mooring two ships in parallel to transfer
cargo. During this operation, one of the ships may be anchored, or both of them in movement.

CBM Mooring- It is the same method can be used with multiple buoys

Multipoint Mooring – Is a mooring method that thw bow of the ship is secured using anchor
whereas the stern is secured around it

Bowline – to make a temporary loop at the end of a line.

Pad eye – A metal plat with an eye attached the deck

Swing Mooring – because a vessels is attached to this kind of mooring swings

Back Splice – It is used for finishing the end of the rope which is not required to a rope to a
back or any fraying prevents the end for unlying

Pile Mooring – is a poles driven into the bottom of the water way with their tops above the
water vessels tie their mooring line to do or fore part to fix their position between this
piles

Permanent Anchor Mooring – This mooring are used instead of temporary anchors because
they have considerably more holding power cause his damage to marine environment
and are more convenient.

Forward Breast Line – describe to keep close to pier.

Aft Bow Spring – describe to prevent from advancing

Forward Quarter Spring – describe to prevent from moving back

Stern Line – describe to prevent forward movements

Head Line – describe to keep part of the ship against the dock

Line Throwing Gun – seldom use as last resort

Bolo Line- is a naylon line with padded lidweight attached up and throwed from ship to ship or keel
to keel

Heaving line - a line thrown across to ship or pier to act as messenger for mooring lines

Movement – once anchoring is completed the stopper must be close on the chain to prevent
