What is used when securing light vehicles aboard Ro-Ro vessels?
• Ro-Ro (Roll-on/Roll-off) vessel cargo securing practices • Typical securing gear for light vehicles vs heavy cargo • How tension is applied and adjusted safely on vehicle lashings
• Think about which option is commonly used to tighten and hold webbing or straps on cars and small trucks during sea transport. • Consider which device allows quick adjustment and release by crew when loading/unloading many vehicles. • Ask yourself which items on the list are usually the lashing material itself and which is a mechanism used with straps.
• Identify which choice is a device used with straps rather than the strap or line itself. • Eliminate options that are more typical for heavy cargo or fixed rigging than for cars and vans. • Consider what gear you see on modern car carriers for securing wheels or chassis of vehicles.
