Very good film looking at Boat Lifts in Great Britain, France, Germany and Belgium. Starts with the first lift, at Anderton, then looks at 2 other lifts, in France and Belgium, which use the same principle. Other straight lifts at Henrichenburg in Germany, and the new gigantic lift at Strépy Thieu are also visited, then it’s on to the oddballs - the 1.5 kn long inclined plane at Ronquiere in Belgium and the bizarre lift at Montech in Southern France where a wedge of water is used to get boats up and down the incline. Finally the remarkable Falkirk Wheel is visited and seen in operation. Good technical information on a fascinating subject, all in a well made film.
