The Bruce
Bight-Lock Chaser
The Bruce Bight-Lock chaser enables an anchor to be recovered in less time than with a conventional chaser.
- Locks onto a chain link or a special socket in a mooring line when the line is pulled into a bight
- Enables most of chaser pendant tension to be applied for anchor recovery
- Enables anchor recovery at lower bollard pull and winch capacity
- For use with chain, wire rope, or a combination of both
- Can be used as a conventional permanent chaser or in bight-lock mode
The Bight-Lock chaser is pulled along the mooring line from the MODU to the mud line near the anchor. The Bight-Lock chaser locks onto a chain link or a special socket on a forerunner wire, and prevents the mooring line from running back through the chaser towards the anchor.
