My surtees has a craypot winch and it is just a standard anchor winch. Seems to do the job though you would not want to use it commercialy

If it has sufficient grunt (torque), you might be able to get away with putting an anchor winch through a small gearbox to up the speed (Thinking about the size of the drive box on my old Masport Commander orchard mower (no you can't have it LOL), not sure what the calcs are to work out how far you can go before smoking or stalling the motor though.
