intégrer dans le moule de la jupe arrière un tube inox pour une lyre de passerelle

gangway yoke


Explanation:

neutral  Michael GREEN: Finally, all our efforts were in vain, Graham - would have been nice to receive a "thank you", though ...//well, the context is confidential, so we don't get to see the beast. My link shows the usual cable support // IMO the t-bar is a "support de lyre"

  -> ooh, don't think it's a T-bar; a lyre is U- or V-shaped ;-)
