    There are many propulsion systems that use reversing buckets, but this is the first time I've seen a reversing bucket used as a propulsion system. Good find Rene!

    I saw a TV segment about gold mining offshore sandbars in Alaska where they showed the same technique being used by back-hoes mounted on the processing barges.
