The other morning as I drove past the Coal Harbour waterfront I saw these three "Boom Boats" all lined up on the boat ramp waiting for the tide to come in and refloat them.
So what is a Boom Boat? These rugged and powerful little boats are used to push logs and bundles of logs around inside a booming ground which is an area of water for sorting logs. Generally speaking these logs and bundles of logs are made into rafts or log booms so they can be towed by much larger tow boats to other locations.
how very cool! thanks for the education!
ReplyDeleteVery neat bumber boats. Nice job caturing them.
ReplyDeleteReflections in that pic are captured well. I can just imagine those little busy bees maneuvering around sorting and tying up logs. Looks like they could turn on a dime! Great post and pic!
ReplyDeleteExcellent reflection.
ReplyDeleteThat's an interesting photo. I'm surprised they would just let them sit on the bottom when the tide went out. Must not be worried about the props. LOL
ReplyDeleteNice reflections! Most of the lakes around here, the boats sitting on top of the mud due to lack of rain this year.
