Why? A ship always displaces an amount of water that weighs the same as the ship, regardless of how heavily a ship may be loaded4 [+ {3 S6 v, F! O6 A# ^

The Incredible Magdeburg Water Bridge in Germany
! C+ Y1 S" c& g, k' g- KThe Magdeburg Water Bridge is a navigable aqueduct in Germany that connects the Elbe-Havel Canal to the Mittelland Canal and allows ships to cross over the Elbe River. At 918 meters, it is the longest navigable aqueduct in the world.tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb' l+ M f. v3 b) t8 F" c0 W- F' ^
The Elbe-Havel and Mittelland canals had previously met near Magdeburg but on opposite sides of the Elbe Ships moving between the two had to make a 12-kilometer detour, descending from the Mittelland Canal through the Rothensee boat lift into the Elbe, then sailing downstream on the river, before entering the Elbe-Havel Canal through Niegripp lock. Low water levels in the Elbe often prevented fully laden canal barges from making this crossing, requiring time-consuming off-loading of cargo.
