Caribbean Cruise - Barbados


These screws were driven down by the drive shaft you can just about see on the left, all powered by a steam engine

The screws pressed down on these 'see-saws' which lifted the boat out of the water

Seen on our coach tour of the island

Cattle with cattle egret birds

In dock alongside a disused crane

The concrete structure is submerged for a boat to enter and then 'pumped up' with air to make it rise and form a dry dock
