The sonde cable from the controller connects to the drum on the left side in Figure 3-3 (not
visible in photo); while the winch motor/gear assembly is mounted to the right side. The orange
sonde cable routes through the opening in the deck. A diamond screw helps guide cable to wind
evenly on the drum. The cable passes through a V-roller suspension assembly that helps to
prevent possible snags or tangles as the sonde pays out or reels in during profiling.
