Wow! Very interesting!

Thank you I wanted to reflect some of the use of bridging equipment and genral unseaworthyness of some of the German landing craft.

Also some of it's cargo is What if

We have der Flaming Dingo - or captured Dingo with FLamethrower
and also a Bren Gun Carrier and a French carrier armed with Anti Tank rifles

I wouldn't want to cross Albert Park Lake on that let alone the Channel.

So a cable ferry or transporter bridge converted into a ferry ? Fascinating build

It'd need LONG cables, and how would they have got the far ends in position before hauling it across?

Rocket powered grapples

Rocket powered grapples

With a 27 mile range no doubt?

Why else do you think they built all those tunnels and bunkers on Cape Gris Ney ? Pardon my French spelling

I may be wrong (and often am)  but to me it looks as though propulsion is a sort of stern wheel paddle driven off the back axle of an AEC Matador  hanging over the blunt end.    I know AEC  vehicle engines were supposed to be reliable, but.........

We have der Flaming Dingo

No doubt captured from an Australian regiment.

It was inspired by a picture of a open blitz being used as a paddle propulsion . Although I'm assuming it would have been for a river crossing.
