: Oh My GOD! Page 39 of marriot's book. Photo of forcastle. Right there above the bell on the mast is the mount for the forward derrick! It never occuered to me what that thing was. Now it all makes sense!
: Obviously, this was not a permanent fixture, but by god it was used at least once.

The pole to the right is the tall chimney or vent.
The boom is not mounted in this pic. It's still Olympic though.
