I think that the Force12 Low Profile Tower
(http://force12inc.com/lpt1a-1.htm) might do the trick without inflicting
quite so much financial pain as the ENG jobs. Stock, the winches are
hand-powered or can be driven by a cordless drill, and they seem to be
willing to do quite a lot of customization so they might be able to provide
you a remote powered version. It wouldn't hurt to ask.
