  A boat lift, ship lift, or lift lock is a machine for transporting boats between water at two different elevations, and is an alternative to the canal lock and the canal inclined plane. The 119 m Krasnoyarsk hydroelectric dam, located on the Yenisey river within 30 km upstream from Krasnoyarsk in Divnogorsk town, was finished in 1964 and supplies 6000 MW of power. As a result of the damming, the Krasnoyarskoye reservoir appeared. This reservoir, also known as Krasnoyarskoye More (Krasnoyarsk sea), has 2000 km² area, 73,3 km³ volume, 388 km length, 15 km width in the widest place, 36.6 m average depth and 105 m depth near the dam. The dam is equipped with a ship lift to allow passage of ships. Held to be a landmark symbol of Krasnoyarsk. That “rail lift” was established in 1967 at Krasnoyarsk on a 100-m-high dam of the river Yenissei, to cross the 100-m-dam for barge traffic without cargo transfers - it’s the entire boats ! Target had apparently been not to interrupt the North-South barge transportation in this part of Siberia.                  CREATELINKTOWARDSTHISARTICLE PREVIEWQUOTE
