Navigation Notes:

Winches

CTD Winch with .322" Electro-mechanical wire
Mooring / TSE winch
Other Portable Winch
Trawl Winch with 9/16th trawl wire

Winch Notes: OOI heavy lift winch (SOSI) on main deck for anchor recovery.  Requires 480V 3-phase power supply.  Currently winch is configured without a connector (just bare wires).

Question: would the TSE winch come from the west coast winch pool, or would it come from the east coast pool and be carried over on Atlantis?
