Disappearing Fairleads and Bullrings turn 180 degrees
so as they are flush with deck

Older subs have fixed deck bollards but more modern have retractable bollards to take them level with the shell. Example instructions of mooring a sub. Far more sophisticated than a normal ship.

Me neither, but if you read the description above, it says 'at anchor'. I gather what Igor means however.
