Hydrological Services has recently
developed the Flying Fox, a remote-controlled towing system. Using a
hand-held control, the Flying Fox is designed to tow floating or
suspended items across a straight span of rope. It was designed with
tethered boats and ADCP measurements in mind. It may also be possible to
use the Flying Fox for other water monitoring needs, such as sending a
water quality sonde across an otherwise inaccessible cross-section.
