Correct me if I'm wrong but that looks like a boat train. The boat with the motor up front and 6 "cars" being pulled behind it.

The guy I was with referred to it as the Daintree River Train and apparently it was unique. Whether that was in the Daintree area or continentally I have no idea.
I must admit “boat train” makes me think of the old passenger trains that operated to meet a passenger ship or ferry.

Apparently a locally built craft. M.V. Spirit of Daintree

Apparently, and crikey doesn’t time fly, it was put up for sale in 2011.
It’s river permits were taken over by an existing cruise operator so its new owner had to operate it on a new lake or river but I couldn’t find where it ended up.

Gave up the ghost, waiting for the flood.

HMS Artful, alongside Gibraltar. https://en.wikipedia.o​rg/wiki/HMS_Artful_(S1​21)

Submarine U-475 Black Widow Soviet Navy submarine of the Cold war period, which is now in private hands. It is currently moored at Strood, opposite Rochester on the River Medway, in South-East England. Needless to say, we don't get too many of these on the River Medway.

foxtrot class sub. same as the "scorpion" that is currently flooded and rotting away moored next to the Queen Mary in Long Beach

scorpion and black widow by the way were NOT their official names and they didnt have a "U" number designation either. the soviets went only by a B number
