Pretty cool. It reminds me of the Power Wagons the Mexicans used to haul boats in with in San Felipe, Baja Calif. Only they didn't have a dock. They had to drive them into the low tide as close as they could get and sometimes the motors drowned or they got stuck. When the tide came in and covered one, they waited until the tide went out and they hooked another one on and pulled it out, drained all the oil, and put them back to work. This was around 1963. I wonder if they are all still in service.
