<p><font face="Verdana">There is less or no ambiguity about the term
lock. In all locks the boat or ship remains in water and is
used only to take a ship or boat from one level of a waterway to
another level in a waterway.</font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana">In a boat lift or ship lift or ship crane,
whatever you call it, that is not a strict requirement. It can
be intended to lift a boat or ship to dry land or to a dock,
which is not a part of the waterway, the boat or ship is lifted
out of the water.<br>
It can also be a term to use when the boat is lifted in a
containment of some kind, still remaining in water but not with
the primarily use of taking it to a different level in a
waterway.<br>
A device that lifts a boat or ship to a dock or dry land can not
be called a lock since a lock's only purpose is to let the boat
or ship continue it's journey within the same or connected
waterway(s).<br>
