A pair of handles extend outwardly from a take-up structure of the reel, the take-up structure being rotatable about the handles and configured such that when the reel is rotated about the handles the line of action of a force applied by the towline to the reel at least once per revolution of the reel passes approximately through the axis of rotation.
