"THE BIG" 4 OF THE
The equipment employed con- sisted of six pontoons, three "on Bach side of the sunken vessel, and two barges, the latter farnish- ing the steam supply for the pumps on the pontoons. Each of the pontoons had four chain wells of flat triangular form with an open flaring bottom to allow for the sweep of the chain. The pontoons on one side of the vessel under the hull to the pontoons on the other side, and by the side of each chain well was a mast with a full and tackle to tako up the slack of the chain. The chains As they emerged from the wells passed up through planks pivoted at one end and arranged to be lifted by hydraulic jacks." After the chains were drawn taut by the tackle they were fastened to the planks by U-shaped pins fitted under the obain links, and the hydraulic jacks were operated to secure a more uniform tension.
If the Jose had rested upon a soft bottom it would have been easy to pass the chains under the hull by lowering them under the bow and working them backwards and forwards until they reached the desired position, but as the wreck rested on boulders such a course was impossible, and in many cases it was necessary to blast a channel under the wreak, through which a small obain could first be passed and then employed to haul through a heavier one. There were a number of delays due to the snapping of the chaine when the pontoons were rocked by wwells.
The raising operation required considerable skill as the tension on the chaias had to be regulated so that each would bear its own share of the burden, and this was done
by practical judgment alone, no instruments being em- ployed to test the tension. In raising the wreck the pontoons were filled with water to sink them so far as practicable, and st low tide the slack of the chains was taken in and their tension adjust
