Re: Details of ships and boats

thanks for this report ombugge,
but i wonder;
you are checking vessel out for transportarion and insurance,
making images of that what cabn be use when something happen.
do you not get any problems for placing them here,i mean not every shipowner wants that the whole world to know what the situation is onboard,speccially when its bad.

So far I have not had any complains. Maybe CVF isn't so widely read as we think?

new build vessel owners don't want that complicated or total new machinery is to found on the net taken by someone who was on board, and what whad to be topsecret

Sophistication??? You mean those in post # 82???

Jokes aside, I have given that some thought. I try to avoid posting anything that may get me into trouble on the "negative" side. There isn't any "Top Secret" equipment on any vessel I get to visit, or have any dealings with. The one exception was a Submarine, but I was not allowed on board, or to take any pictures from the outside. (I don't think I would have been able to get in through the hatch on that Sub anyhow)

It's been a long time since I posted anything in this thread, but here is a newbuilt AHTS still being fitted out at Batam.
21,000 Bhp and estimate 250 m.t. Bollard Pull. (Yet to be tested)

I didn't get a good external shot, but here is an identical sister ship seen at the same yard May last year:

The main difference is the Offshore crane, which is missing on this one.

The superstructure and winch house:

I can assure you, it is a long climb from the deck to the bridge.

A closer look inside the Winch house:

The winch has a capacity of 500 m.t. pull on all three drums.
The Main drum can hold 6100 m. of 76 mm. diam. wire:

Just for scale

The photo of the capstans really got me. I have no idea how big it is but I am accustomed to seeing them with a handle on top and able to handle 1/2" (12mm) line but I am guessing the one in your photo is much larger.

Thanks for the pictures.

Yes much bigger. The hydraulic drive motor sits below deck. Capable of 15 m.t. pull. (That's why you can't see any handle on top)
The lower part is to fit a wire to aid in handling heavy equipment on deck, or used to lash cargo when under way.

Yes, that capstan could lift the boats I'm used to sailing.
