An assembly includes a hoist or a winch, a cable, and a fleet angle sensor. The fleet angle sensor includes a frame disposed around an opening. A first photodetector with multiple light-receiving zones is mounted on the frame. A first light source is mounted on the frame opposite the first photodetector. The first light source directs a first light beam across the opening to the multiple light-receiving zones of the first photodetector. The cable extends through the opening and into the first light beam, and the multiple light-receiving zones produce signals that vary based upon a fleet angle of the cable extending through the opening.
