Very few lift bridges remain in operation in Australia. Batemans Bay has probably the largest. In normal use it rises only a small distance for a tourist boat, but very occasionally it needs to rise to full height, as on this day when the local yacht club had a run up river. A note shows the operator.

o0o impressive George indeed ... we have transporter bridges and wonder
if you have seen or heard of them ... but this is wonderful against that blue
sky ... oh lucky you ;-) oOo

Thanks, Bev. I'm not familiar with the term 'transporter bridges', are they something like the pre-fabricated WW2 Bailey bridges? Yes, it was a lovely sunny and very enjoyable day. :)

Thanks for the interesting link, Bev. I'm reasonably confident that there are none of those in Australia.

nel porto della mia città ce n'è uno che si apre dividendosi in 2 parti che si alzano, ma il tratto di mare da superare è molto più stretto di questo...
Eccellente ripresa e taglio !

Interesting to see. When we sold our boat, Conquero, a Cavalier 32, in 2001, it ended up in Bateman's Bay and we saw it down there later on :-)

Thanks, Gillian. I wonder if it's still down here... if I remember I'll check with friends at the yacht club.
