Abstract
A length of non-corroding, filamentary material penetrates a lifting bail of the submersible equipment, and one end of the material is coupled to a hook, while the opposite end is pulled to cause the hook to snare the bail. The hook is held in suspension, but moved into proximity to the bail to enable the material to be drawn through the bail, and to cause the hook to engage the bail for sub sequent lifting of the equipment.
