TENDERS AND SALVAGE SHIPS 191
For salvage work there are fitted several powerful
cranes and windlasses perfectly capable of lifting 1500 to
2000 tons of dead weight. There are also supplied two
specially designed diving boats, and all the necessary div-
ing apparatus and equipment for wrecking work.
The tender is further provided with a rather formidable
armament comprising a number of six inch quick firing
rifles and torpedo tubes, and is quite capable of repelling
the attacks from any of the ordinary light craft. Any of
the submarines which are temporarily out of commission
are thus afforded excellent protection under her wings.
A submarine tender of this sort is well named the mother-
ship.
