This is the only rotational boat transporter in the world. It has two arms and each arm forms a kind of huge tub filled with water.5.39.217.762 W& @" N0 E! z# W
Boats enter the tub, then the tub locks up and the huge arm starts rotating .

The“tubs” are filled according the Archimedes’ Law. So the weight of “tubs” are balanced. To open the upper and lower lock and turn the whole system by 180◦they need an engine of 22.5 kW which only use 1.5 kWh5.39.217.76( Q7 g  Z) G# A% {2 t9 ]

This is a fascinating canal in Scotland. Especially with a elevation of 79 ft between two canals. The swinging transportation is very genius design to save space.
