🔍 Key Concepts

• Tug tripping (when a tug is pulled over by its tow) • Primary purpose of a towing hook / quick-release hook • Difference between controlling the tow and maneuvering for berthing

💭 Think About

• Think about the main safety reason towing hooks were invented: in what emergency do you most urgently need to release the tow? • Which choice describes the core function of a quick-release device, and which choices describe possible but less certain side benefits? • If a tow suddenly starts to sink or sheer, what feature of a towing hook helps protect the tug and crew?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option focuses on rapid release of the tow rather than general tug handling ability • Ask whether a towing hook is primarily about connecting or about emergency disconnecting • Consider which options might be indirect effects vs. the primary design advantage of a towing hook
