Multiple driven winch drive rollersare supported by the bodyso that they are rotatable about axes that are parallel to the vertical axis in response to the multiple processor driving rollers. A winch drumis attached to the body. A drum gearinfluences the speed and direction of winch drum rotation. Attached to the winch drum is a cablehaving a proximal endregion and a distal end region that is detachably attachable to an objectto be retrieved by the winch system.
