December, 1924 MARINE REVIEW 51 LIDGERWOOD AUTOMATIC MOORING WINCH At the end of her most successful trial trip the HENRY FORD II At Last slowly drew up to the dock at ; : ‘ Lorain. Four mooring lines passed Mooring Difficulties to the dock and made fast to A O bollards. Lidgerwood Automatic re Uvercome Tension Electric Mooring Winches put in operation, ship laid along- side in less than oné minute. The ship still carried a slight headway. Each pair of winches, one paying out and the other winding in, easily checked headway and brought her to rest. About fifty guests watched each pair of winches. Marine guests expressed operation as wonderful, better than handwork. Officers from Atlantic Seaboard expressed the opinion that they would work equally well on ocean ships. Lidveriiedd Mfg.
