Stern Gantries (portaal)
There are two gantries fitted to the stern of the Jacinta. These are very sturdy platforms that provide an
anchorage point for the hanging blocks. It is here where the dangerous work of connecting and disconnecting
the trawls is done when hauling and shooting the trawl. It is quite common to see trawlers of this type with trawl
doors hung up on the stern gantries, ready for use.
The Jacinta is also fitted with a stern crane on the starboard side stern gantry. The stern crane is used for
dragging the cod ends back down the stern ramp during shooting operations. The stern crane has a SWL of
less than 1 tonne so it is of limited use and can only really be used for handling the empty cod ends. It does
however come in handy for retrieving snagged cables at times.
