- Lithograph, Canal Boat on New Jersey Canal, circa 1830 - This image illustrates a method of shifting boats from one level to another that was used on parts of New Jersey canals. A boat was floated, and then fastened, on a submerged wheeled cradle. The cradle was then lowered or pulled up an inclined plane. At the new level the cradle moved on submerged tracks, and the boat was released.
