Ruston Proctor steam engine and boiler to power a trawler's steam winch
Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Sailing trawlers (also known as smacks) had a large capstan winch to get the nets in. The adoption of steam power for this job saved a great deal of effort for the crew. This engine was installed below deck and drove the capstan by a shaft from below. |
