Summary

[edit]
Description Skipper, Bud Marrese operates the capstan deck winch -- a powerful machine typically found on purse seine commercial fishing vessels. Capstan winches have been a source of many injuries, and even fatalities, to commercial fishermen who accidentally become entangled with lines or nets as they are being retrieved. NIOSH researchers developed an emergency-stop device, shown being tested here, to reduce the incidence of such injuries.
