Just because a winch has been used for a long time-try 27 years-it doesn't mean it needs to be replaced. Perhaps it just needs a little modernizing. Twenty-seven years is how long three Markey Machinery DESH-5 deep-sea research winches have been on the 274'×52' Ronald H. Brown, a NOAA research vessel. Bollinger Mississippi Shipbuilding, Pascagoula, Miss., awarded Seattle-based Markey a contract to upgrade the Ronald H. Brown's deck equipment "to current standards and current practices," said Scott Kreis, Markey's vice president of sales. That includes the three Markey DESH-5 winches that the company designed a few decades ago for the oceanographic industry. |
