This report presents a brief survey of underwater winch technology. Ten previously developed underwater winches were selected for review, and the data gathered are presented. A summary of lessons learned through the developmental and operational experiences associated with these programs is given together with critical design features to which attention must be paid for design of a deep-water, long life winch
