Abstract
An A-frame has a winch head swingable from a cross-member and between its two arms. A docking member comprises an upper frame depending, by means of hydraulic rams, from the winch head and a lower frame swingable from the upper frame about an axis perpendicular to the axis about which the winch head can swing from the cross-member. Guides for a load-carrying line are provided on the frames.
