In preparation for the Endurance 20 expedition, the heavy winch to be used in recovery and deployment operations on the R/V Sikuliaq, is lifted in the yard at the Ocean Observing Center in Corvallis. The heavy winch will be loaded on a tractor trailer for transport to the newly renovated Oregon State University Pier in Newport, Oregon.
