This Might Look Like Any Other Normal Inter Island Car Ferry,

but it is unique, 


it is the last manually operated turntable ferry in the world, photograph, Glenelg, Scotland, the MV Glenachulish is a ferry operating a summer service between Glenelg, on the Scottish mainland, and Kylerhea, on the Isle of Skye, built in 1969 she is still in service in the summer to this day, evidently the reason for the ferry using a turntable is because of the unique way it has to dock, as it can not, because of the way the dock is made, pull up bow or stern first to the dock, fascinating, if we ever drive to Scotland again it will be on our list of things to do.
