Human Powered Zodiac-winch
Goal	Enable water sampling and battery powered CTD-operation in shallow waters.
Description	This small winch has a small drum with about 60 meters of hydrographic wire. This drum can be turned by an operator sitting on a kind of “buddy seat” using 2 handles. The drum is secured for un-intended unwinding.
Remarks	This winch has been developed for water sampling in Antarctica, but is in recent years frequently deployed around Spitsbergen, Norway.
