Actually Richard we do retrieve our lines by foot all the time, no retrievers in our contests in OVSS. The reason that the ford motor is used is it is what has been used for years, maybe not the best idea, but available and fairly cheap. The ownership issue is an individual choice, I have done this off and on since 1975 and have never owned one, and most guys I know either have a club winch they take care of or have a good hi-start.
