What looks to be a giant metal snail attached to a jetty of cement is the Balgstuw Ramspol, an
inflatable rubber dam.
The dam crosses the river that connects the Ketelmeer and the Zwarte Meer, and was built to protect the nearby villages against rising water in the Ketelmeer.
It has three sections and takes about an hour to inflate.
