Towing system (1) for a tugboat (2). This consists of a ring (4) arranged on the deck (3) of the tugboat along which a cart moves on which a winch (11)is arranged. At a larger diameter of the ring (7) manufacturing inaccuracies of the cart respectively the ring respectively deformations can be absorbed in a particularly efficient way by arranging springs (35) between the wheels (28,38,47)that engage the ring-shaped base (6) and the cart on which the wheels (28,38,47) are arranged. In particular, such springs are rubber springs such as neoprene springs. These can be arranged as blocks, bushes or the like. Preferably, the cart includes a relatively stiff box (8) on which a winch (11) and, more in particular, an electrical winch is arranged. In particular, the cart is a ring, extending around circumferentially.
