Sorry, I have forgotten on situation when one ships goes towards the 
another.

Well, maybe some other principe of moving ships would be better and useful 
too.
And yes, in our country (Czech Republic), there is a ship elevator on the 
river dam near Stechovice (on the river Moldau). It is probably similar to 
the one, which you mentioned.

Well, now just someone add the ramp under the ship and change the water ther
