🔍 Key Concepts

• Understanding how a towing hawser should be controlled when it is NOT yet under strain • Functions of Norman pins, gob rope, and stern roller chock on a towing vessel • How vessel equipment options affect which methods are possible

💭 Think About

• Think about which options actually help keep the hawser near the centerline of the stern when it is slack or lightly loaded • Consider whether each listed method can be used independently, or if some are mutually exclusive or used for different types of towing setups • Ask yourself: does any one method automatically exclude the others, or could more than one be correct if the vessel has all that gear?

✅ Before You Answer

• For each choice, picture physically how the hawser would lie over the stern and whether it would stay near the centerline without heavy strain • Verify what Norman pins are normally used for on towing vessels and how they control the lead of a line • Verify how a gob rope is used in towing, and whether a stern roller chock is designed to centralize and protect the hawser over the stern
