Replenishing your supply of wenches at sea is usually signalled by the call, "Arrrh, matey!" and is no longer allowed at Disneyland.

Cargo stations have a couple of wenches one for tension line and one cargo shuttle which uses cargo nets to transfer pallitized cargo.

Wenches to tension the line?

The female RCN members would brain you with a belaying pin if you called them wenches. ;)

 

I was thinking it was a tad unPC to suggest what replenishment at sea needed was more wenches!

Lovely typo.
