Capstan
Used to haul in a messenger line, which in turn pulls the mooring line to the quick release hook. Trelleborg Marine Systems electric Capstan removes the need for mooring crews to haul in the lines manually.
The electric capstan motor is housed within a protective structure, either within the base of a QRH or as a stand-alone product serving one or more QRH units.
