Abstract:
A pair of elongated arms is pivotally mounted on a gunwale of a flotation vessel and is designed to retrieve and deploy an oil containment boom for inspection or repairs. Each arm is independently connected to an electrical winch assembly mounted on the flotation vessel. A remote control operates lowering and raising of the arms when retrieving and deploying the boom.
