MattyBoy; It is a ballast/stability pontoon, but it is not used as a counterweight. In that case it would need to be placed on the portside of the ship as it is discharging the yaught on the starboard side. Counterweights are usually not used on a ship. To prevent the ship from listing during the lift, ballast is pumped from one side to the other. What the pontoon does is increasing the "Water Plane Area", in this way increasing the stability.

person

I'm sorry adenanthos if I omitted a location. Just a simple eroor on my part. I normally provide as much information as I can. Alan

person

I always fill in the location, but on occasions when you start typing in the port, you get the no ports available pop up, so no way of filling in the location.
I agree this one should have been, but a bit ingenuity would have got you to where you wanted, instead of complaining to the poster. Rant over

person

Thanks Arnes for exactly pointing out why it important to fill in the "location' box, I don't understand why many members refuse to do this? I have no idea about their motives.

person

Amazing photo!

person

It's a ballast pontoon that works as a counterweight.

person

Interesting photograph.Is that a counterweight they're lifting/holding on starboard side?

person

Phantom53; that's not the point by asking this question. The point of asking is: when "location" box is not filled in, it is not possible to search for photos taken at that port.

person

adenanthos, if you look at the description it tells you where it is " Ijmuiden "

person

Nice picture but why don't you fill in the "location" box?

person

I liked.
