I .igncmoscwNRPOnbtDCC.WIlI222(i%( I dccx.12]?216f Disclosed herein is a wave-powered device (WPD) comprising (1) a float: (2) a wave-actuated component formed with an aperture; (3) a closure component associated with one or both of the float and the wave-actuated component, the closure component having a first state in which it secures the float and the wave-actuated component together as an assembly that can be moved as a unit and a second state that permits the wave-actuated component to move away from the float; (4) a tether having a first end connected to the float and a second end connected to the wave-actuated component, such that when the closure component is in the second state and the float is placed on or near the surface of still water, the float floats on or near the surface of the still water, the tether extends downwards from the float and under tension, and the wave-actuated component is submerged below the float, and when the closure component is in the second state and the float is placed on or near the surface of wave-bearing water, the float floats on or near the surface of the wave-bearing water. the tether extends downwards from the float, and the wave-actuated component is submerged below the float, and interacts with the water to generate forces that are transmitted to the tether; and (5) a winch mounted on the float above the aperture in the wave-actuated component for raising and/or lowering a load through the aperture.
