A hull for a vessel for towing is disclosed, comprising a deck and a towing staple for guiding a towing line. The towing staple comprises a guiding element having a symmetrical extension in a first plane parallel to the deck, wherein the guiding element comprises a first and a second mounting section mounting the guiding element to the hull. The first and second mounting sections are connected by means of a main section of the guiding element. The guiding element comprises a towing line guiding surface located on a bottom side of the main section facing the deck, the towing line guiding surface being configured to, during a towing procedure, slidably contact the towing line, such that the towing line can freely move along a periphery of the main section in the first plane while being restricted in movement by the main section in a direction perpendicular to the first plane. The towing staple further comprises a support element, wherein the support element is arranged on a top side of the main section and extends at an angle to the first plane from the top side of the guiding element to a second plane perpendicular to the first plane and extending through the first and second mounting sections.

The application relates to a floatable foundation structure for an offshore structure including at least one floating body arrangement and at least one mass arrangement. The mass arrangement is connected to the floating body arrangement by at least one holding rope in a coupling state. Further, in the coupling state for coupling the floating body arrangement to the mass arrangement, a coupling section of the holding rope is arcuately guided around a contact section of the mass arrangement.

Disclosed is conduit anchor, an offshore system comprising a conduit anchor and a method of deployment. The conduit anchor includes a base section adapted for attachment to a conduit, and a conduit guide extending from the base section. In use a dynamic conduit extends along a dynamic conduit pathway range defined by the anchor, via the conduit guide. The conduit guide comprises a convex bend protecting surface region oriented towards the dynamic conduit pathway range which in use protects against over bending of the dynamic conduit.

A line management system for an outrigger structure is provided for guiding outrigger cords through cord passages to maintain an independent longitudinal displacement in order to prevent entanglement. The system includes a plurality of outrigger cords, cord management units, and retention devices. The plurality of cord management units are coupled to the outrigger structure and are longitudinally spaced one from the other along the outrigger structure. Each of the cord management units defines a plurality of transversely offset cord passages respectively guiding predetermined ones of outrigger cords to maintain an independent longitudinal displacement relative to the outrigger structure.

A pulley system for tying a boat to an anchor comprising a block and tackle assembly and a jammer. The block and tackle assembly has a plurality of pulleys arranged on a first bracket and a second bracket, and a first rope strung sequentially through each of the pulleys, ending with a last pulley. The jammer is coupled to the second bracket and has a channel and a jammer exit at the end of the channel. The last pulley, the channel, and the jammer exit are configured to create a tortuous path for the rope through the second bracket. The channel may be misaligned with the last pulley. A swivel and a rope clip may be coupled to the block and tackle assembly. The swivel is configured to rotate at least 360 in either direction. The rope clip is configured to allow for quick tightening of the pulley system.

A cleat attachable device for attaching to a cleat having horns. The device includes a frame having a base end, a distal end opposite the base end, and lateral posts. The lateral posts are disposed opposite one another and are connected to one another at the distal end. The lateral posts each have a respective mounting plate with a longitudinal slot formed therein. A stud plate has an underside for resting on the cleat. The stud plate has two studs opposite the underside for receiving the mounting plates thereon and securing the frame to the cleat.

An insert is provided for use on industry standard gratings to prevent wear and damage to rigging ropes passing through the insert.
