Samson - a powerful heavy lift vessel in Øresund
If you need to lift something really heavy in or close to the sea - this is it: The Samson heavy marine lift, here seen close to Helsingborg/Helsingør this morning on its way from Landskrona to Aarhus.
The 67x27m Samson´s crane has a sailing height of 41m. The vessel is operated by the Danish Salvage&Towing Company DBB.

Just for comparison, here is a Swedish heavy lift from 1920:
