:thumbup: Good input. Thanks.

I swear I am going to do it....I have HH2 and Akimbo...have been using both DDRT/MRS. Just have to put time aside to make it happen.

Thanks for input Kenny...roundturn is good and no-creep limiters, too. Had not thought of wind funneling but good advice. I would definitely vacate the car/lift area before letting them lift. Too many variables to ride with car. Marc-Antoine...my hope is to be able to do it without deploying...

Gigi...you ARE an Island Girl. Tides in our Chattahoochee?? hahaha...no worries there...constant flow, whatever it happens to be due to rainfall upstream. Re: fire ladder truck...good question there...I did wonder about that, too. I have seen them use them horizontal to recover a body that...

I am on our local Dive Team....search, rescue, recovery for water situations (bodies, evidence, etc.). We also do land work but this question is water related. We recently did our second vehicle recovery at this bridge site on the Chattahoochee River. There is a boat ramp upstream and local...
