Give your business a lift!
Ship Lift No. 1 is the pick of the pack at the Biesboschhaven. Originally constructed in the early 1970s and completely rebuilt and updated in 2012, its quadruple hydraulic cylinders and 8 thick steel cables can lift tugs and pushers physically out of the water. The lift is suitable for any type of ship up to 11.50 metres beam and 150 metres in length. Now that puts things into perspective.
