A tow line guide pin assembly comprises a pair of pin assemblies 0, each comprising a pin casing 1, which can pivot about a hinge 12, fixable to the deck 102 of a vessel, where the casing may pivot between an arrangement where the casing is flush with the deck, and one where each casing extends above the deck, powered by a respective pin casing actuator 8. A lock pin 3 is actuated by a lock pin actuator 9 out of each casing structure, to extend across between the pin assemblies and form a bridge (13, figure 1) with the other lock pin. The actuators may be hydraulic actuators. In some embodiments, each pair of assemblies may comprise respective male and female lock pin ends 130.
