The Glenelg-Kylerhea turntable ferry
Harrapool, United Kingdom (GB)
Since 1982, from Easter to October and the weather is OK, the ferry MV Glenachullish i operated from Glenelg on the Scottish mainland to Kylerhea on the Island of Skye.

This ferry is unusual because the car deck is a turntable operated by the crew. It's the only ferry this kind in the World.
