After pull test, AHTS recovers the towing wire, and then continues paying out the chain and pennant wire. The installation of first line is completed after abandoning the marker buoy and Norwegian buoy into water.
Recommended design of a pennant buoy system with associated equipment: soft eye or socket. Note: Open end link here means open common link. Use an appropriate rated swivel in the working wire to prevent wire spinning. Minimum thickness …

Appendix 11-A
In general, a swivel should not be used in the pennant system, only on the working wire. Illustrated below is the recommended PCP system. Note: It is recommended that chain connectors (kenter, etc.) are used for connecting for all mooring line segments. The use of shackles in mooring line should be avoided.

Pennants wires are used for laying and retrieving the anchor. Pennant wire used shall be similar in size and type to the anchor wires. Occasionally where the anchor wire is small (e.g. 1-1/4 inch) then a slightly bigger pennant wire (e.g. 1-1/2 inch) may be used.
Pennant winder and spooling sheave for anchor handling vessel …
The pennant winder is designed to uncoil pennant wire coils and spool the wire up again into manageable coils again after use. It handles up to 200 metres of 84 mm wire weighing up to 6 tonnes.
handling of large anchors, buoys and chains on deck of the vessel by “deck-hands”. The MDH has revolutionized the safe handling of anchors at sea by controlling the spin-out of wires by a dedicated wire-clamp, remote controlled buoy catching as well as catching the pennant wire by remote control all from a safe distance to the handler.

All anchors must be fitted with a chain pigtail (about 4 metres long) at the crown end. This is to provide for safer handling and avoid chafing of pennant wire, which commonly occurs if they are fitted directly to the anchor. Some anchors, e.g. FLIPPER DELTA and STEVIN, have a provision for changing fluke angles to suit the soil conditions.

This document provides guidelines for anchor handling systems, including: 1. Recommended designs for permanent chaser pendant systems with minimum requirements for pendant wires, connectors, and surface buoys. 2. Recommended design of a pennant buoy system showing associated equipment like shackles, pigtails, and kenterlinks. 3.
A pennant wire is 120 or 150m long, 77mm diam wire with hard eyes on each end. Delivered to the vessel in coils, they are opened by connecting the outer end to the winch, and throwing the inner end over the stern. They are either attached to the PCP wire fitted to the collar on the anchor, or directly shackled to the anchor.

Two remote controlled and hydraulically operated retractable hooks are placed either side of the stern roller of an anchorhandler to capture the pennant wire. They eliminate the risky operation of a crew member standing at the extreme aft end of the vessel hooking the pennant wire manually.
