Hand operated cable/chain ferry across small Dommel river in ‘s-Hertogenbosch, the Netherlands. See picture to see position hydrophones. On the other side of the river, to the left of the cottage, you will see the small ferry. In this recording it comes in my direction.

About the ferry;
There is a hand-operated cable ferry connecting the nature reserve with the ‘s-Hertogenbosch mid-level city wall. You have to turn the wheel to drive the ferry.

This small ferry forms a link in a walking route along the outside of the old fortified city of Den Bosch. The old nickname of the fortress was chosen as the name for the ferry: de Moerasdraak 'the Swamp Dragon'.
