Year: 1986 Language: English Author: George H. Reid Genre: Practical guide Publisher: Cornell Maritime Press Edition: 1st ISBN: 9780870333545 Format: PDF Quality: Scanned pages + text layer Pages count: 280 Description: This volume has been written to remedy these deficiencies. It is intended for the pilot, ship’s officer, or tug master. For this reason the emphasis is on the practical, rather than the theoretical, aspects of using tugs. It is my modest hope, however, that this material will not only prove useful to the professional mariner, but will be informative for those who follow other callings related to the handling of ships and tugs, afloat or ashore. Questions and answers have been supplied for many of the chapters. It is hoped that they will be helpful to beginners in tug work. Shiphandling with Tugs is the most comprehensive text available for the mariner who wants to learn how to safely and effectively operate tugs in assisting ships to and from their berths in ports and anchorages. George H. Reid used his extensive knowledge of the industry to bring original edition, published in 1986, up to date with current technologies and standards, adding sections on the advances made in tug design, and line and winch technology. Shiphandling with Tugs includes a chapter on ship escort with updated and expanded chapters on tugs, including descriptions and illustrations of the tractor tug designs and capabilities.
