Barient Winch


A barient winch and line aboard SPV Star Clipper. In the background are the rails of the ship with another line tied around a cleat. A Lamp, a white stand and the sea are also visible. A winch is a mechanical device that is used to pull in (wind up) or let out (wind out) or otherwise adjust the "tension" of a rope. In its simplest form it consists of a spool (to hold the rope) and a slot to attach a hand crank.
