text: Let’s assume that a rocket or gun line has got to the right position in the casualty. It is a slim weak line in itself and something more substantial is required quickly. First then a heaving line or a point line is attached and hauled across. When that, still smallish, line is in hand a medium sized rope is attached in turn and that is hauled across. Only then can the casualty hope to heave over the actual tow-wire from the tug. The last action is to see that the tow-wire is thoroughly and securely made fast. That sounds like teaching Grandma how to suck eggs but even experienced seamen can fail to appreciate the enormous stresses involved.
